Abstract
In 1998 a young surgeon joined the Institute of Nuclear Medicine, for a 3 year program leading to a PhD. It became the most successful collaboration between Nuclear Medicine and Surgical Oncology, in a field which barely a few months later, had been baptised by a most eminent Dutch surgeon, S.
