CERN’s relationship with the United Nations continues to thrive

CERN has developed an accelerator just two metres long to be used in hospitals for medical imaging and the treatment of cancer

Construction began today on the CERN MEDICIS research facility, which will make radioactive isotopes for medical applications

Knowledge gained in developing particle detectors for the LHC has been used to create a dedicated PET device for breast scans

This week, for the first time at the CNAO hadrontherapy centre in Italy, a beam of carbon ions was used to treat a cancer patient
