This work studies the potential of using short life fission product (A Fp) radioisotopes e.g. 82 Br, 86 Rb, (90 Sr) - 90m Y, (99 Mo) - 99m Tc, 103 Ru - 103m Rh, 111 Ag, 127 Sb - 127(m) Te, 126 I, 131 I, 133 Xe, 136 Cs, 141 Ce, 143 Ce, 143 Pr, 147 Nd - 147 Pm, 149 Pm, 153 Sm, 156 Eu, 159 Gd and 161 Tb, extracted from a molten salt reactor and their separation using specific thermodynamic and radiochemical conditions. Their utilisation for coupled radiodiagnostics and radiotherapy is a key consideration. A molten salt reactor produces fission products during operation...
