Except energy how does the nuclear process help us?

Nuclear fission gives us energy by splitting an atom which releases heat. However, the atom that was split is now two atoms of (usually) two different elements. Some of those elements can be used in fields such as nuclear medicine, which can be used to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions. The best example of this is the production of molybdenum, which is used to supply technetium, the most common radionuclide used in nuclear medicine.
