The advantages of the vascular lab (VL) are a specialized knowledgeable team and a dedicated equipment which is transferrable to the procedure room to facilitate the procedure and gather information about the procedure endpoints. In this article, Registered Vascular Technologists (RVT) from various institutions discuss the basic and the complex ways the VL can be used inside a procedure room. The advantages of the vascular lab (VL) are a specialized knowledgeable team and dedicated equipment which is transferrable to the procedure room to facilitate the procedure and gather information about procedure endpoints. Such expertise may improve imaging guided access, enable complicated lesion crossing, and provide information about the success of the procedure. Below are the reports from practicing registered vascular technologists at the forefront of patient vascular care within institutions that have adopted the mobile intraprocedural VL idea in basic and complex real-world ways.

Dealing with radioactive waste, particularly from various industrial processes, poses significant challenges. This paper explores the use of lithium aluminate borate (Li-Al-B) glass matrix as an alternative method for immobilizing radioactive waste, focusing specifically on waste generated in tin smelting industries, known as tin slag. The study primarily concentrates on transforming tin slag, a byproduct abundant in Natural Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM), into a stable and safe form for disposal.
