Isotope Library files
I made them for my own use, and they are handy for me. However, it may clatter the screen or slow down the system. Keep the original isotope list and please use them with a bit of caution.
There are lots of peaks in these files, even though I included only "small selections" from the main database. Remove/edit as you wish.
For Identify Exe (that comes with PM1703MO-1A/B): Place in the folder where you put Identify Exe. With default installation, it would be
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Polimaster\PM PRD PoliIdentify\Identify
Theremino Mca : Put in "Extra" Folder under
ThereminoMCA . Create a copy of original data, rename as "Isotopes_Energy.txt"
BecqMoni : Put in the "config" folder. Create a copy of original data, rename as"NuclideDefinition.xml"
- Medical Isotopes (compiled by me from the list below. Small peak selection.)
Added "impurities": Tl202 (comes with Tl201).

Technetium-99m (6 h): Used in to image the skeleton and heart muscle in particular, but also for brain, thyroid, lungs (perfusion and ventilation), liver, spleen, kidney (structure and filtration rate), gall bladder, bone marrow, salivary and lacrimal glands, heart blood pool, infection and numerous specialised medical studies.
Bismuth-213 (46 min): Used for TAT.
Chromium-51 (28 d): Used to label red blood cells and quantify gastro-intestinal protein loss.

Dysprosium-165 (2 h): Used as an aggregated hydroxide for synovectomy treatment of arthritis.
Erbium-169 (9.4 d): Use for relieving arthritis pain in synovial joints.
Holmium-166 (26 h): Being developed for diagnosis and treatment of liver tumours.
Iodine-125 (60 d): Used in cancer brachytherapy (prostate and brain), also diagnostically to evaluate the filtration rate of kidneys and to diagnose deep vein thrombosis in the leg. It is also widely used in radioimmuno-assays to show the presence of hormones in tiny quantities.
Iodine-131 (8 d): Widely used in treating thyroid cancer and in imaging the thyroid; also in diagnosis of abnormal liver function, renal (kidney) blood flow and urinary tract obstruction. A strong gamma emitter, but used for beta therapy.

Iron-59 (46 d): Used in studies of iron metabolism in the spleen.
Lutetium-177 (6.7 d): Lu-177 is increasingly important as it emits just enough gamma for imaging while the beta radiation does the therapy on small (eg endocrine) tumours. Its half-life is long enough to allow sophisticated preparation for use.
Palladium-103 (17 d): Used to make brachytherapy permanent implant seeds for early stage prostate cancer.
Phosphorus-32 (14 d): Used in the treatment of polycythemia vera (excess red blood cells). Beta emitter.
Potassium-42 (12 h): Used for the determination of exchangeable potassium in coronary blood flow.

Radioisotopes of caesium, gold and ruthenium are also used in brachytherapy.
Cyclotron Radioisotopes
Carbon-11, Nitrogen-13, Oxygen-15, Fluorine-18:
These are positron emitters used in PET for studying brain physiology and pathology, in particular for localising epileptic focus, and in dementia, psychiatry and neuropharmacology studies. They also have a significant role in cardiology. F-18 in FDG has become very important in detection of cancers and the monitoring of progress in their treatment, using PET.

Hope this will do for you !
