A sample is dissolved using automated fusion at the United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine’s Radioanalytical Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, April 9, 2024. Part of USAFSAM’s Occupational/Environmental Health Department, the lab is one of only a few in the world with the capability to perform automated fusion, a much faster and safer alternative to traditional acid digestion methods. Using fusion, samples are ready to be tested for radioactive materials in five minutes rather than days or even weeks. (U.S. Air Force photo / Richard Eldridge)
