IBA make three types of machines: cyclotrons for the production of medical isotopes, accelerators (e-beam machines)for use in sterilization of medical products and neutron accelerators for BNCP (Boron Neutron Capture Therapy)for treatment of mainly cancers of the brain and this might be the confusion. To my knowledge they have not been marketing their accelerator systems for the production of medical isotopes.
