Strontium behaves chemically very much like calcium. I'm assuming that the isotope is SR-90 (which is very nasty stuff indeed), which, if ingested, would go directly to the bones, where it would burn out the marrow and thus induce leukemia. Ugly.

Strontium is a rare substance, which is also used as a radioactive isotope.

Huh?
