The radioisotope most widely used in medicine is technetium-99m, employed in some 80% of all nuclear medicine procedures - 70,000 every day. It is an isotope of the artificially-produced element technetium and it has almost ideal characteristics for a nuclear medicine scan. ... Isotopes used in Medicine...
