Uses of radioisotopes Nuclear Power Note: nuclear power works by radioactivity “Radioisotopes are naturally occurring or synthetic radioactive form of an element. Most radioisotopes are made by bombarding a stable element with neutrons in the core of a nuclear reactor. The radiations given off by radioisotopes are easy to detect.
