Today radium has only limited applications in research laboratories, for example for the preparation of radon standard solutions, in neutron sources of the type Ra-Be, etc.
Possible use in radiotherapy of some cancers.
Radium was used in the past for luminescent painting of watches and other instruments, was used rarely in toothpaste, cosmetics, etc. These applications are not permitted now because radium is strongly radioactive and dangerous.

How do polonium and radium affect your life today?
Polonium and radium's affect on our lives today are for example the meters on our cars, they glow because of the radium and also some wristwatches the light you get when you press the button on the side.
