Benefits of isotopes to man?
Medicine! It's called nuclear medicine to combat cancer.
What are some of the roles of isotopes?
- Isotopes are used as sources of radiation in medicine, sterilization, nondestructive control, etc.- Isotopes can be used as tracers- Isotopes can be used as energy source- Isotopes are used for radioactive dating- Isotopes are used in chemical analysis- Isotopes are used in many instruments- Isotopes are used as source of nuclear energy in bombs and nuclear reactorsetc.
How can we use isotopes to help us?
Isotopes can be used in various fields to enhance our understanding and capabilities. In medicine, radioactive isotopes are employed for diagnostic imaging and cancer treatment, allowing for targeted therapies. In environmental science, stable isotopes help trace sources of pollution and study climate change by analyzing past atmospheric conditions. Additionally, isotopes are crucial in archaeology for dating artifacts and understanding historical timelines through techniques like radiocarbon dating.
Are there any types of nuclear medicine that doesn't use radioactive isotopes?
All nuclear medicine techniques use radioactive isotopes.
What type of medicine use isotopes?

What careers use isotopes?
Examples: chemistry, physics, geology, biology, medicine.
How are stable isotopes used in medicine?
Stable isotopes are used as tracers.
How are radioactive isotopes different from isotopes?
Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.
Are metastable isotopes used in medicine?
Two isomers of technetium were used in medicine.
Use of nuclear energy to medicine?
Radioactive isotopes are made in reactors, and can be used both for diagnosis and treatment, especially of cancer.
Benefits of isotopes to man?
Medicine! It's called nuclear medicine to combat cancer.
How is a radioactive isotope helpful in medicine?
In medicine isotopes are used for treatments, diagnostics or as tracers.
What objects use energy?
The use of nuclear energy in civilian society is to generate electricity. In the military it is to make bombs (and hopefully not use them). There are also some uses in medicine where radio isotopes can be used for diagnosis and treatment. These isotopes are produced by irradiation in low power reactors which enable short lived radio isotopes to be obtained as required.

How are radioactive isotopes useful to researchers?
Radioactive isotopes are used is:- medicine, for treatment by irradiation- medicine, for diagnostic- in science/technology as tracers- as source of energy- as source of ionizing radiations- in many instruments- determination of rocks ageetc.
