harry says...............RADIONUCLIDES AND RADIOIMMUNOTHERAPY

Nuclear medicine physicians or radiation oncologists may administer radionuclides with therapeutic effects. Iodine-131 is used to treat thyroid cancer as iodine is naturally taken up preferentially by the thyroid. It emits gamma rays that destroy the normal thyroid as well as the tumor. Strontium-89 and samarium-153 are two radionuclides that are preferentially taken up in bone, particularly sites of new bone formation. Both are capable of controlling bone metastases and the pain associated with them, but the dose-limiting toxicity is myelosuppression.
