Teletherapy radionuclide system source (A device that is typically a reactor produced radioactive isotope used as the source of radiation in a teletherapy radionuclide system designed to deliver external beams of therapeutic radiation to a targeted anatomical location. Radionuclide sources incorporated as a teletherapy system component are typically in the physical form of an encapsulated (sealed ) source. The most commonly used teletherapy source radioisotopes are Cobalt-60 (Co-60) and Cesium-137 (Cs-137).)
