Cardinal Health has entered an agreement with ProVision Healthcare to manage and operate its cyclotron facility in Knoxville, Tenn.
The Knoxville cyclotron facility is part of the East Tennessee Healthcare Center, which offers an array of clinical services including diagnostic imaging, a breast care facility and wellness, oncology and cardiology services, said the Dublin, Ohio-based company. The cyclotron is also located nearby Cardinal’s existing nuclear pharmacy in Knoxville, where it will dispense PET imaging agents into patient-specific doses.
