The supply of Russian radioisotope products to Brazil has allowed the Brazilian government to reduce by half the costs of inputs that help diagnose and treat various cancers, according to Jair Mengatti, production director of Brazil's Institute of Energy and Nuclear Research (IPEN). Over the past years, IPEN, the main producer of radiopharmaceuticals in Brazil, has had problems getting inputs such as Iodine-131, now 100% imported from Russia. "Up until the end of last year, our supplier was from Canada, but after the bidding process, we went to Russia for our supplies. We saved around $100,000 a week," he said.
