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.

14. Radionuclide
    A radionuclide is an atom with an unstable nucleus, characterized by excess energy available to be imparted either to a newly created radiation particle within the nucleus or via to an atomic electron. During this process, the radionuclide is said to undergo radioactive decay, resulting in the emis...
