USAFSAM pioneers radioactive sample testing technique
Three samples are dissolved using automated fusion at the United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine’s Radioanalytical Laboratory. The laboratory is one of only a few in the world with the capability to perform automated fusion -- a much faster and safer alternative to traditional acid digestion methods. Using fusion, samples are ready to be tested for radioactive materials in 5 minutes rather than days or even weeks. (U.S. Air Force photo/Rick Eldridge)
