7. Radionuclide
   A radionuclide is a radioactive form of an atom that is either natural or manmade. They can be used in tiny amounts as a tracer in a bone scan, for example. Or they may be used as a cancer treatment. Iodine 131 is an example of a radionuclide - it is a radioactive form of iodine.

22. Radionuclide
    A `radionuclide` is an atom with an unstable nucleus, which is a nucleus characterized by excess energy available to be imparted either to a newly created radiation particle within the nucleus or to an atomic electron. The radionuclide, in this process, undergoes radioactive decay, and emits gamma r...
