The invention relates to an interventional system comprising an introduction element like a catheter for being introduced into an object, for instance, a person. A moving unit like a robot moves the introduction element within the object, wherein a tracking image generating unit generates tracking images of the introduction element within the object and wherein a controller controls the tracking image generating unit depending on movement parameters of the moving unit, which are indicative of the movement, such that the tracking images show the introduction element. This control can be performed very accurately based on the known real physical movement of the introduction element such that it is not necessary to, for instance, irradiate a relatively large area of the object for ensuring that the introduction element is really captured by the tracking images, thereby allowing for a reduced radiation dose applied to the object.

An underground nuclear power reactor system has a hollow blast tunnel which extends from one end of a containment member. The system includes a nuclear reactor vessel and other components that may be positioned on a movable support member or on a bottom wall of the containment member. A blast tunnel, which defines a blast chamber, has a plurality of spaced-apart debris deflectors positioned therein. The blast chamber has an upper wall with a roof opening formed therein which is selectively closed by a roof portion. If the reactor needs to be repaired or replaced, the roof portion is opened so that the reactor vessel can through the roof opening. If the reactor vessel explodes, a blast therefrom drives debris therefrom through a blast door and into the blast chamber where the deflectors reduce blast force as the debris passes through the blast chamber.
