A medical isotope is an isotope used in medicine. The first uses of isotopes in medicine were in radiopharmaceuticals , and this is still the most common use. However more recently, separated stable isotopes have come into use.
This is a list of radioactive nuclides (sometimes also called isotopes), ordered by half-life from shortest to longest, in seconds, minutes, hours, days and years. Current methods make it difficult to measure half-lives between approximately 10 −19 and 10 −10 seconds.
The tables of elements are sorted in order of decreasing number of nuclides associated with each element. (For a list sorted entirely in terms of half-lives of nuclides, with mixing of elements, see List of nuclides.) Stable and unstable (marked decays) nuclides are given, with symbols for unstable (radioactive) nuclides in italics. Note that ...
Note that medical isotopes may be not radioactive, for example deuterium (2 H) in deuterated drug. Pages in category "Medical isotopes" The following 34 pages are in this category, out of 34 total.
A chart or table of nuclides maps the nuclear, or radioactive, behavior of nuclides, as it distinguishes the isotopes of an element.It contrasts with a periodic table, which only maps their chemical behavior, since isotopes (nuclides that are variants of the same element) do not differ chemically to any significant degree, with the exception of hydrogen.

The template provides a standardised table header for a List of isotopes, as is used in each of the 118 Isotopes of <element> articles. Parameters allow for adjustment of the table header structure, references and table footnotes. This header does not change existing rows: values, isotope-specific footnotes, structure, nor split decay routes ...
