The D.V. Efremov Institute (NIIEFA) is one of the leading enterprises in Russia involved in designing and manufacturing of applied charged particle accelerators as well as electrophysical systems based on these accelerators. Since the foundation of the Institute, we have designed, manufactured and delivered to Russian customers and abroad more than three hundred accelerators for diverse applications, in particular, cyclotrons, linear electron accelerators, high-voltage accelerators and neutron generators. The activities of the Institute in the field of accelerating engineering encompasses all the stages of an accelerator manufacturing, starting from R&D works to manufacturing, installation and maintenance of the delivered equipment. The Institute is granted the license and the International Certificate for the Quality Management System based on the International Standard ISO 9001 for designing, development, production, installation and maintenance of charged particle accelerators. Nowadays, there are the following most promising fields of application of the accelerators designed and manufactured in NIIEFA, namely: nuclear medicine, radiotherapy and neutron therapy, non-destructive inspection, activation analysis, electron-beam sterilization, radiation processing in industry and environmental protection.

Radionuclide diagnostics that allows most diseases to be diagnosed at an early stage has recently been in the focus of attention. The current concept of radionuclide diagnostics advancement takes into account Russian geographic and demographic features and supports the application of the home-made equipment. As a basis, the concept assumes the establishment of regional diagnostic centers at hospitals in each Russian Federal district. In each such a center, a cyclotron of the CC-18/9 model, modules for radiopharmaceuticals' synthesis, single-photon emission (SPECT) and positron (PET) scanners should be installed. The yield of radiopharmaceuticals' production will satisfy the needs of such a center and of up to 30-35 SPECT-"satellites" located in diagnostic departments at hospitals situated up to 1000 km from the center. In future, on the basis of these diagnostic departments, autonomous PET-centers can be established, each equipped with СС-12 cyclotrons, modules for radiopharmaceuticals' synthesis and with 3-4 PET scanners. Implementation of the Federal Targeted Program on the serial production of cyclotrons and SPECT-scanners will allow the examination of population to be increased within 5-6 years up to 1.0-1.2 million people per year.
