Detection & Imaging

Industries

It is critical across many industries to identify and locate sources of radiation accurately and quickly. We’re supporting safe workplaces by enabling the detection and imaging of radiation.

Making the invisible, visible

One of the more challenging aspects of dealing with radiation is that you cannot see it directly, which can result in potential exposure when working in those environments.

By accurately imaging radiation across the full energy range, CORIS360™ improves operational decision making for anyone working in these industries.

ANSTO’s new platform imaging technology CORIS360™ makes the invisible, visible, by identifying and imaging the exact location of radiation sources.

Applications in

Industry

By accurately imaging radiation across the full energy range, CORIS360™ improves operational decision making for anyone working in these industries:

Border Protection & National Security

Screening cargo entering a country is vital to prevent the passage of illicit cargo, including radioactive material.

Decommissioning & Decontamination

Around the world, more than 115 commercial power reactors, 48 experimental or prototype reactors, over 250 research reactors and several fuel facilities have been retired from operation. Decommissioning requires careful planning and comprehensive characterisation.

Defence & Military

Increasing the situational awareness of RN threats in theatres of engagement has become an essential part of defence strategies in countries around the world.

Radiological incident first responders

For first responders and emergency teams undertaking risk assessments and establishing secure perimeters quickly and effectively, is paramount to the safety of people and the environment.

Nuclear operations

Operating nuclear reactors for power, research and medical isotope production, as well as the associated waste management operations, requires careful monitoring, maintenance and shielding of fuel and irradiated products often in high dose rate environments.

Radiation services & health physics

Health physics services are vital in ensuring the safety of radiation workers within the nuclear industry.

Safeguards

It is essential that nuclear safeguards inspectors can confidently verify that nation states are meeting their obligations under international nuclear safeguards treaties. Central to these inspection activities is the identification of the location, type and amount a nuclear material that can be traced to declared activities.
