The book by Evelyne Cerf-Pecher, “Charles Pecher (1913 – 1941) et le Strontium Radioactif”, recounts the discoveries, the life and the tragic end of Charles Pecher, Belgian pioneer in nuclear medicine whose work has long been ignored. It is written in French, but a 38 page English short version is included.
The Belgian Nuclear Research centre, SCK CEN, a global player in research and production of radioisotopes and their medical applications, has decided to support the publication of this story, a mixture of science, biography and politics, in order to complete the history of nuclear medicine and thus help to illustrate the pioneering role of Charles Pecher.
