Existing license with a proposed change

We review the authorization, identify the applicable path, and support qualifying amendment or facility-readiness work.

We refer ground-up applications to an experienced licensing partner and may support medical-physics and facility-readiness portions.

The facility and licensee remain responsible for reviewing, approving, signing, and submitting official licensing materials as required.
Frequently asked questions

Medical RAM license amendment questions.

What is a RAM license amendment?

A radioactive-materials license amendment is a regulator-approved change to an existing license. Depending on the license and jurisdiction, a proposed change may instead require notification, internal documentation, or no formal amendment.

Do we need an amendment to add Pluvicto?

Not every Pluvicto project follows the same regulatory path. The facility's current authorization, radionuclides, uses, locations, personnel, procedures, and jurisdiction must be reviewed before determining whether an amendment is required.

Can you help add or remove a physician or Authorized User?

We can review and support qualifying requests to add or remove a physician or Authorized User from the licensed program or license, as applicable, subject to the jurisdiction, documentation, qualifications, and agreed scope. The licensee remains responsible for reviewing, approving, signing, and submitting the request.

Can you help amend our radioactive materials license so we can start a theranostics program?

Yes. We can review your existing radioactive materials license and planned theranostics service, then support qualifying amendment work for items such as Lu-177 therapies, Authorized Users or physicians, treatment locations, procedures, equipment, and radiation-safety documentation. The required path depends on the license, project scope, and NRC or Agreement State requirements.
