molecular imaging of cancer with positron emission tomography
... Isotopes that are beta-emitters — 3H, 14C — are not useful for non-invasive imaging of living subjects because beta-particles (electrons) do not travel significant distances in tissue and do not lead to annhilation events, as do positrons. Gamma-emitting isotopes — 99m Tc (technetium), 111In (indium ...

Nuclear medicine
Nuclear medicine is a medical specialty involving the application of radioactive substances in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. Nuclear medicine scans are usually conducted by radiographers. Nuclear medicine, in a sense, is ""radiology done inside out"" or ""endoradiology"" because it records radiation emitting from within the body rather than radiation that is generated by external sources like X-rays.
