Hello everyone! Today we're going to dive into a fascinating topic - the impact of radiopharmaceuticals on the environment. But before diving into the content, let's start with a little game of trivia to get our brains working.
I'm going to give you four different items. Your job is to guess which one doesn't belong and explain why:
Pause for student guessing
Did anyone guess number 4? Why do radiopharmaceuticals not belong with the other items? That's right, because they're not biodegradable and can leave a lasting impact on our environment.
Now that we're warmed up, let's focus on the topic of radiopharmaceuticals and their impact on the environment.
Radiopharmaceuticals are commonly used in nuclear medicine to help diagnose and treat a variety of medical conditions. But what happens to these substances once they're introduced into the environment? How do they affect our ecosystems and the health of our planet?
Today we'll explore these questions and more as we examine the unique challenges presented by radiopharmaceuticals in our environment. Are you ready to learn more? Let's get started!
