Yes, isotopes are also tracer elements since most modern disease detection techniques involves the subjects ingesting a small amount of radioactive tracers and detect such things as tumors via x-ray or photographic emulsion techniques. In fact, most tracer elements are isotopes.

They dissolve it in a liquid and the patient drinks it
Tracer
A tracer is anything put into a dynamic system having a distinct, nondestructive property that's intended to be measured and analyzed throughout the system, usually to gather some piece of information about the system itself. Examples include unnatural or radioactive nuclear isotopes, dyes with specific colors, a particular chemical compound, etc.

About 1 Mg.
RIA measures scintillation due to decay of radioactive tracer. ELISA measures a color change due to an enzyme tracer.

A radioactive tracer is a radioactive atom inserted in a compound to see what happens to it in a reaction, usually in biotechnology. For example, to find out where carbon atoms go in photosynthesis, scientists can give the plants carbon dioxide with carbon-14 instead of carbon-12 and track the progress of the carbon-14.
