China’s ‘Anti-Cancer Nuclear Bomb’ Breakthrough: Breaking the Global Monopoly on Medical Isotopes

Chinese scientists have achieved Curie-level mass production of medical alpha isotopes using the China Spallation Neutron Source, breaking a long-standing reliance on expensive imports. This breakthrough significantly lowers the cost of precision cancer therapies and establishes a robust domestic supply chain for next-generation radiopharmaceuticals.
