Objective To estimate dose distribution in normal vessels delivered by radioactive solution in the catheter for intracoronary intra-balloon brachytherapy.

To help keep radioactive matter from leaking, a dust - suppression system inside relies on sprinklers that periodically spray a watery solution to prevent it from becoming airborne.

The General Atomics program, if successful, could provide a partial solution to one of the biggest problems associated with nuclear energy: figuring out what to do with highly radioactive waste.
