see that word 'chemical'? They r gonna delete that word in the syllabus when the new one comes out.

Just say something basic. e.g. Technetium - 99m is used for medical purposes (in diagnostics and treatments of diseases) because it has a short half life of 6 hrs. This makes it appropriate to use, as this property will ensure as less radiation exposure to the patient as possible.
