Yes, interstitial radiation therapy can use radioactive isotopes of phosphorus, such as phosphorus-32, as a treatment for certain cancers. These radioactive sources are implanted directly into or near the tumor to deliver localized radiation therapy.
Patients receiving interstitial radiation do become temporarily radioactive
Yes
Interstitial radiation therapy places the sources of radiation directly into the tumor and surrounding tissue.
The advantage is that it concentrates the radiation near the cancer and lessens the chance of damage to normal cells
Interstitial microwave thermal therapy is a type of hyperthermia treatment for cancer, in which heat produced by microwaves (which are a non-ionizing form of radiation) is used.

The palladium alarm is located in our house.
One can extract palladium from a catalytic converter by using a process called smelting. This involves heating the catalytic converter to a high temperature to separate the palladium from the other materials. The palladium can then be further refined and purified for use in various industries.
