Robert Schenter and Michael Korenko demonstrate how spent nuclear fuel can be transmuted into valuable radioisotopes for nuclear medicine. Spent nuclear fuel is extremely valuable as fuel for fast reactors and source of producing radioisotopes for nuclear medicine in fast reactors, like the Fast Flux Test Facility, FFTF.
