It turns out, fusion isn't just the energy of the future—it's also a key to cancer treatments. Neutrons from merging special forms of hydrogen will turn abundant elements into radioisotopes for diagnosis and therapy. A single compact reactor could replace a network of outdated facilities and make treatment widely available.
