What is the image produced by gamma camera after injection of radionuclide?
Radionuclide
What is the quantity measurement of a single radionuclide?
A single radionuclide is typically measured in units such as becquerels (Bq) or curies (Ci), which indicate the rate of radioactive decay of that particular radionuclide.
What is meant by the half-life of a radionuclide?
The half-life of a radionuclide is the time it takes for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to undergo radioactive decay. It is a characteristic property of the radionuclide and can be used to determine the rate at which it decays.

What is the radionuclide used in most nuclear medicine procedures?
Technitium 99m is the most common radionuclide used in nuclear medicine.
Is a radionuclide a stable atom?
No. A radionuclide is an example of a nuclide capable of emitting some type of ionizing radiation (hence the "radio" in the name") based upon which atomic isotope is present within the nuclide. One example is ATP32 where the alpha position of the tri-phosphate of the ATP molecule is P-32 instead of P-31. Because of this, P-32 is capable of emitting high energy Beta particles. There are some examples of stable isotopes of various atoms. Carbon-13 is a stable isotope of C-12, whereas C-14 is a radioisotope of carbon.
By far the radionuclide used in most nuclear medicine procedures is?
Technitium 99m is the most common radionuclide used in nuclear medicine.
If the half-life of a radionuclide is 1 month is a sample of it completely decayed after 2 months?
No, it is not. If a radionuclide has a half-life of 1 month, half is gone after 1 month. Half of the half that is left will be gone after 2 months, and that will leave 1/4th of the original amount left after the second month.
What do you call something that is radioactive?
Something that is radioactive is called a radionuclide.
