Timeline
- 1979 – EBCO “contracted to help build a 500 MeV cyclotron at TRIUMF (TRI-University Meson Facility, Canada’s National Laboratory for Particle and Nuclear Physics)” (“Leaders in Cyclotron Development”)
- 1989 – Commercialisation of TRIUMF’s technology.
- 1989 – “Advanced Cyclotron Systems Inc. was then formed to develop, promote and sell cyclotrons to the nuclear medicine community.” (“Leaders in Cyclotron Development”)
- 2003 – “The first 300 μA TR-19 cyclotron, setting the benchmark for PET cyclotron industry, was brought to market. It took ACSI competitors another 15 years to develop a cyclotron with similar parameters.” (“Leaders in Cyclotron Development”)
