Americium 241 is an artificial isotope with a long half life - 432,2 years - and a gamma ray emitter. Being a strong gamma emitter it can be used for gamma radiography of materials and for thickness gauges.
Im surprised you didn't simply use Google for this one. Radiography refers to the use of ionizing radiation for the acquisition of high quality images for diagnostic purpose, or for the treatment of malignant disease. In non technical jargon, radiography is the firing of radiation through a person to create an image of the persons inside (guts and bones, etc). The same radiation can also be used to 'attack' cancers within the body through a similar process in a separate discipline called 'therapeutic radiography'.
Nothing, except that gamma rays are emitted in the fission process and from radioactive waste.
It is not possible to know a priori.

Radiography is the process whereby an image of a solid object is produced using radiation such as x-rays, gamma rays or neutrons penetrating the object.

Radiography is generally used to look for suspicious or unusual particles in the body. Radiography is the process of transmitting X-rays through the body.
Americium 241 (not Am 247 ) is an artificial isotope with a long half life - 432,2 years - and a gamma ray emitter. Being a strong gamma emitter it can be used for gamma radiography of materials and for thickness gauges.
Gamma radiations is a natural process by radioactive material.
