Radioactive isotope, also called radioisotope, radionuclide, or radioactive nuclide, any of several species of the same chemical element with different masses whose nuclei are unstable and dissipate excess energy by spontaneously emitting radiation in the form of alpha, beta, and gamma rays.

There are about 50 naturally occurring radioactive isotopes, and the rest are artificial. We probably don't know all of the many uses these radioactive isotopes have, or the benefits they bring in various fields.

There are many radioactive isotopes that are very beneficial in applications in medicine. For instance, radioactive isotopes are used for radiation therapy and for locating brain tumors.

For instance, if you need to keep track of activities of your organs, radioactive isotopes are also used here.
