Before it was known how harmful the radiation emitted by radium as it decays is to living tissue, it was applied to some products such as watch faces for its glow-in-the-dark property. Now we know better. Today, unless you are working in the field of nuclear medicine or you are mining uranium ore, you will not be running into radium.
