Radioactive isotopes like lead 210, cesium 137, or carbon 14 are used to trace those changes in a given place "to see what measures have been taken and what has or has not worked," the Spanish scientist said.
They are contaminated with cesium 137, and experts say medical and dental checks here, combined with the respite from continued exposure to radiation at home in Belarus, helps combat chances of developing cancer.
