The nuclear test monitoring agency, CTBTO, joins forces with a Belgium producer of radioelements for nuclear medicine to reduce radioactive noble gas emissions. By reducing the amount of radioactive xenon released in the production of isotopes for nuclear medicine, it will help the world's nuclear test-ban monitors to focus on detecting atomic explosions.
