12. Specialty Isotopes: Medical Isotopes
•
Medical isotopes are used to prevent, diagnose and treat disease
•
Main isotope supply sources
are nuclear reactors and cyclotrons
•
Primary product is Mo-99, which decays for use in Technetium-99
(Tc-99m) generators, used in imaging to diagnose heart disease and
cancers
•
Other Key Reactor Isotopes:
–
Iodine-131 (I-131), used to treat hyperthyroidism, thyroid cancer and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma;
–
Iodine-125 (I-125), used to treat prostate cancer;
–
•
Xenon-133 (Xe-133), used in lung scans;
–
Yttrium-90 (Y-90), used to treat liver cancer.
Key Cyclotron Isotopes:
–
Iodine-123 (I-123), used to diagnose thyroid disease;
–
Strontium-82 (Sr-82), used to manufacture rubidium-82 generators, which are used in imaging
to diagnose heart disease
–
Thallium-201 (Tl-201), used to diagnose and assess risk of coronary artery heart disease;
–
Palladium-103 (Pd-103), used to treat prostate cancer;
–
Indium-111 (In-111) and Gallium-67 (Ga-67) (both used to diagnose infection and cancer) at our
Vancouver facilities
