Radiation Oncology/Radiochemistry
Appearance
- Radiochemistry is the chemistry of radioactive materials, where radioactive isotopes of elements are used to study the properties and chemical reactions of non-radioactive isotopes (often within radiochemistry the absence of radioactivity leads to a substance being described as being inactive as the isotopes are stable
- Radiochemistry includes the study of both natural and man-made radioisotopes
