Antimatter is a key component in cuttingedge medical procedures from "summary" of Antimatter by Frank Close

Antimatter, often a topic of science fiction, has now found practical applications in cutting-edge medical procedures. The unique properties of antimatter make it a key component in these advanced medical techniques. One such application is in the field of positron emission tomography (PET) scans, where antimatter particles known as positrons are used to create detailed images of the human body. In a PET scan, a small amount of a radioactive substance is injected into the patient's body. This substance emits positrons, which quickly encounter electrons upon release. When a positron collides with an electron, they annihilate each other, producing gamma rays. These gamma rays are then detected by the PET scanner, allowing doctors to create highly detailed images of the body's internal st...
