Medical isotopes relevant to IsoDAR energies, reprinted from [18].

Isotope	Half-life	Use
^52Fe	8.3 h	The parent of the PET isotope ^52Mn and iron tracer for red-blood-cell formation and brain uptake studies.
^122Xe	20.1 h	The parent of PET isotope ^122I used to study brain blood flow.
^28Mg	21 h	A tracer that can be used for bone studies, analogous to calcium
^128Ba	2.43 d	The parent of positron emitter ^128Cs.; As a potassium analog, this is used for heart and blood-flow imaging.
^97Ru	2.79 d	A 𝛾-emitter used for spinal fluid and liver studies.
^117mSn	13.6 d	A 𝛾-emitter potentially useful for bone studies.
^82Sr	25.4 d	The parent of positron emitter ^82Rb, a potassium analogue; This isotope is also directly used as a PET isotope for heart imaging.
