Radioisotopes in Medicine online learning module

Students explore the medical applications of radioisotopes using an online, scenario-based learning experience. 

Students will:

  • Select the appropriate radioisotope for each patient and their medical issue.
  • Relate the characteristics of a medical radioisotope (half-life and type of radiation emitted) to its use.
  • Complete decay equations for four commonly used radioisotopes.

A student workbook to accompany this module is available. Answers available upon request via education@ansto.gov.au
