Pictures of the Cyclotron
It spins completely around me while I lay on the table in front of it. They radiate me from the top, sides, and bottom. The blue cast was made of my legs to hold them in the same place every time. The machine projects a laser image of the radioactive field on my body and it is lined up with permanent tattoo marks.

It's hard to get a true concept of exactly how huge the machine really is. It's really amazing to see in person. Even more amazing is the approximately 8 ft. thick door that slides open for him to walk through. The tech told me that the walls are 8 ft thick as well. Pretty powerful statement about how strong the beam is. I tried to get a photo of the "Beam On" light that flashes over the door, but couldn't get a clear one (using my cell phone). I'll have to try again next time I'm in Seattle. --Amy
