GammasonicsTM , privately owned and located in Five Dock,
NSW, started in the late 1970’s pioneering the design and
manufacturing of Radiation detection equipment for Radiology, Nuclear
medicine and National Security..
The majority of GammasonicsTM
consultants and partners are formerly from Government, EPA and Health
Commissions across Australia,
familiar with each State and Federal Regulations. With more than 20,000 ionising radiation apparatus certified by their group
helping to reduce medical radiation dose to the Australian population with
27 years of operations, the business has grown to become the largest and
most experienced in the Southern Hemisphere.
Today GammasonicsTM
is the leading consulting organisation to
private, hospitals, private practices, and government institutions in the
area of medical radiation with many links to universities and regulatory
authorities within Australia,
Southeast Asia, the Far East,
South America, Europe and
recently entered the USA.
“GammasonicsTM
is currently working with several government agencies and others in a bid
to stop terrorism”.
GammasonicsTM has
been recognised by Government and Private within Australia
and Overseas for their contributions to the world of Medicine and Science.
GammasonicsTM
spends 40% of their revenues in research and 60% of their turnover is
Exported.
One of the best-known technologies developed by GammasonicsTM is The “Gamma
Probe” designed in the mid 1990’s for surgical applications in
breast cancer patients. The
technology has taken GammasonicsTM
name to almost every corner of the globe. The technology has helped more than
100,000 patients to undergo less radical surgical procedures. Initially developed for breast
cancer, today it is widely used in melanoma, gynaecology,
rectum, colon, and other procedures, as highlighted in several high profile
media programs like Quantum, RPA, etc.
“The application of the same precise technology,
which has helped to identify human tissue contaminated by radionuclide in
surgery, is now available and applied to National Security.”
GammasonicsTM philosophy
is Prevention and Protection rather than Response, which has prompted the
development of technology applicable to national security.
The PRDWD (Passive Radiation Detection Warning Device)
and BRASS (Body Radiation Application Search Scanner) will help to stop
smuggling of radionuclide products.
“Presently radiation products can be carried from
boarder to boarder, country to country and state to state without being
detected or noticed.”
With a world patent, GammasonicsTM
is securing the technology and currently working with three of the
largest international security manufacturers, in Europe
the USA and
Australia. We are very excited with the
simplicity of the technology which can be easily retrofitted to existing or
new walk-through metal detector gates at airports, railways and ferry
terminals.
In addition, R-2 is a mobile radiation response and
inspection vehicle to be utilised in emergency at
airport terminals, highways and in a possible event of a dirty bomb (the
ultimate weapon). R2 fitted with radiation detectors, GammasonicsTM
own computer and software design, Global Position System (GPS) and
all the latest technologies in the field of Home Security anti-terrorism,
is currently for demonstration for local and world-wide application.
