Technetium is a radioactive transition metal notable for its medical isotope Tc 99m used in diagnostic nuclear medicine.
Properties of Technetium | It exhibits multiple oxidation states and forms coordination complexes useful for radiopharmaceutical labeling.
Uses of Technetium | Rare in nature, technetium is produced in reactors and used primarily for diagnostic imaging and research applications.
Isotopes of Technetium | Tc 99m is short lived and widely used clinically; longer lived isotopes require radiological controls and waste management.
