Dear Nuclear Medicine Professional:
Covidien is very pleased to confirm the HFR in Petten, the Netherlands, has returned to full power, as announced today by NRG, the reactor operator (see link below). We are also happy to report we expect to receive molybdenum 99 (Mo 99) from HFR-irradiated targets early next week—sooner than originally projected—for technetium 99m (Tc 99m) generator production.

Dear Nuclear Medicine Professional,
Today the Nuclear Research & consultancy Group (NRG) in the Netherlands notified its customers that the repairs of the High Flux Reactor (HFR) are nearly complete. They have received approval from Dutch authorities for their return to service plan. HFR now plans to begin operation in early September, 2010, with molybdenum 99 (Mo 99) target irradiation beginning soon thereafter. Resulting Mo 99 supply for generator production is expected in mid-September.
