Some radionuclides used in nuclear medicine can emit radiation that kills cancer cells. There are also pharmaceuticals that behave a certain way in the body (like accumulating in the thyroid). By attaching the radionuclides to the pharmaceuticals, we can "spot" treat things like thyroid cancer without giving a big radiation dose to the rest of the body.
What else can I help you with?
Is chemotheraphy related to nuclear energy?
Chemotherapy and nuclear energy are not directly related. Chemotherapy is a form of cancer treatment that uses drugs to destroy cancer cells, while nuclear energy is a form of power generation that uses controlled nuclear reactions to produce electricity. However, some cancer treatments may use radioactive materials that are produced in nuclear reactors.
How do chemotheraphy and chemophylaxis are be different?
ho
When you can no longer get radioactive iodine to kill thyroid cancer what happens?
You can still treat thyroid cancer by using radiotherapy although I do not think its as effective. Alternatively, chemotheraphy could also be used.
Can you work whilist going through chemotherapy?
yes you can work through chemotheraphy as long as the treatment your taking is a nice and easy treatment but if the treatment your having is hard and very strong then you should definetely rest and stop working .
What nuclear reaction is currently used to produce nuclear energy in nuclear reactors?
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.
