All patients will receive targeted radiotherapy using the P-32 radioisotope.

Their long-lived radioisotope thermoelectric generators provide the power.

- A radioactive isotope of an element; produced either naturally or artificially
- A radionuclide is an atom with an unstable nucleus, which is a nucleus characterized by excess energy which is available to be imparted either to a newly-created radiation particle within the nucleus, or else to an atomic electron. ...
- A radioactive tracer, also called a radioactive label, is a substance containing a radioisotope that is used to measure the speed of chemical processes and to track the movement of a substance through a natural system such as a cell or a tissue.
- (radioisotopes) Chemical variants of an element with potentially oncogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic effects on the human body.
- (Radioisotopes) Atomic particles which decay by natural radioactivity.
- (Radioisotopes) Unstable Isotopes which are radio-active. They may convert spontaneously--after seconds, hours or years, depends on the type of isotope--into other elements; for instance if a neutron in their nucleus converts to a proton, plus and electron which is ejected. ...
- (radioisotopes) materials that produce radiation.
- An unstable element that releases radiation as it breaks down. Radioisotopes can be used in imaging tests or as a treatment for cancer.
- A type of atom that is unstable and prone to break up (decay). This break-up gives off small fragments of atoms and energy. Exposure to certain radioisotopes can cause cancer. Radioisotopes can also be used to treat cancer. During some tests, radioisotopes are injected into the blood. ...
