Social networks have become a useful tool for exchanging experience and resolve technical consultations on various issues in very short times average.

Here, almost every day of the year information on topics of the specialty and related spreads, announcements of technical events is made, rules and technical documents are distributed, the activities of various national and international organizations are broadcast, it mentions links Interest on videos, presentations, photos and publications.
Special attention is paid to the news that routinely appear on the Internet and deserve to be disseminated for information and comments from stakeholders.
Subscribers working in medical institutions, regulatory agencies, universities, radioactive and nuclear facilities, and in general, both national and international public and private entities in different countries.
