A medical isotope is an isotope used in medicine. The first uses of isotopes in medicine were in radiopharmaceuticals, and this is still the most common use. However more recently, separated stable isotopes have also come into use.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
A medical isotope is an isotope used in medicine. The first uses of isotopes in medicine were in radiopharmaceuticals, and this is still the most common use. However more recently, separated stable isotopes have also come into use.
In general, most isotope suppliers are not direct manufacturers because the direct manufacturers come from nuclear power plants. Isotope suppliers are generally authorized by the National Nuclear Energy Agency or signed an exclusive agreement. In addition, in the market, subsidiaries of the National Nuclear Energy Corporation are also the largest suppliers.
