I hate to admit it, but we'd be nowhere. I mean, we need the isotopes for imaging. Many kinds of therapies that are effective for cancer, especially if the disease is localized, require radioisotopes. I think the challenge in cancer, though, is that for most patients who come to the clinic with what we call widespread or metastatic disease, treatments like that are not really going to help, unfortunately. We have to try to find new approaches to treat people at the greatest risk of dying, those with metastatic disease.
