The concept of using radioisotopes to treat cancer and other diseases from inside of a patient's body is a very old one. Some of the ealiest discoverers and developers of radioisotopes, such as Madame Curie, conceived of this type of medical application shortly after the discovery of radioactive decay, over 100 years ago.

In modern times, several isotopes have begun to play important roles in the treatment of cancer. Isotopes are placed into the patient's body in two major ways: they can be injected as sterile radiopharmaceutical solution, usually chemically bonded to some other active ingredient with an affinity for the tissue being targeted or as sealed sources that are physically placed within or near the diseased tissue to provide a therapeutic effect.
