Prof. Liselotte Højgaard (Nuclear medicine physician and specialist in clinical physiology & nuclear medicine and professor at the Dept. of Clinical Medicine, University of Copenhagen) will give us the Danish perspective on the topic and talk about the beneficial use of radiation for nuclear medicine and radiotherapy.
