Presumably you mean radio-isotopes? These are produced usually in small reactors built for the purpose and possibly for other experimental purposes. Short lived isotopes are the most useful for medical tracer purposes as the activity soon dies away. Longer lived and higher energy ones are useful for radioactive treatment of tumors and other conditions.
This question is not really relevant to Nuclear Energy and I will transfer it to Medical questions.

What department uses radioisotopes to perform tests?
hematology
Why are radioisotpoes important to biologists?
Radioisotopes are elements that are radioactive. Radiation has a detrimental affect on chromosomes of living things.
What are uses of neutrons?
In nuclear science, neutrons are used to create different types of radioisotopes for medical uses or other uses Changes the atomic mass of an element creating isotopes
What are the two medical applications of radioisotopes?
- radiodiagnostic- treatment with radioisotopes
What group of elements generally uses the Stock system?
The transition elements.
Is there Uses of radioisotopes in weapons of war?
yes
What department uses radioisotopes to perform tests?
hematology
How is radioisotopes used in nuclear reactors?
Radioisotopes for many uses (e.g. medical, industrial, scientific) are produced in nuclear reactors.
What is radioisotopes potassium-40 and its uses?
is used in photoelectric cells.
Why are radioisotpoes important to biologists?
Radioisotopes are elements that are radioactive. Radiation has a detrimental affect on chromosomes of living things.
Are radioisotopes salts?
Radioisotopes are not salts but salts may contain radioisotopes.
What are uses for nuclear changes?
Production of electricity in power plants, also use of radioisotopes in medicine and industry.
What are uses of neutrons?
In nuclear science, neutrons are used to create different types of radioisotopes for medical uses or other uses Changes the atomic mass of an element creating isotopes
What is the medical industrial uses of the following radioisotopes of chromium?
The isotope chromium-53 is used in isotopic geology for dating.
What are the two medical applications of radioisotopes?
- radiodiagnostic- treatment with radioisotopes
Why is there not many uses of elements?
False; practically all the chemical elements have many uses.
Is a dirty bomb a nuclear weapon?
No, a dirty bomb is a radiological weapon. It simply uses conventional explosives to scatter radioisotopes over an area.
