The proposed two-photon method uses a sharp broadening of the isomer line owing to mixing with an electron transition. In contrast to internal-conversion-induced resonance broadening or a deliberate extra-broadening of the pumping-laser spectral line, this method is not adversely affected by the reduction of cross section. In the case being considered, it is two orders of magnitude more efficient and is applicable both to ionized and to neutral thorium atoms.

Metastases can contain very few cells and spread throughout the body. Despite the existing variety of diagnostic imaging methods, in practice, the resolution of note of them allows unambiguously diagnosing the presence of a tumor (clump of cancer cells) smaller than 1–2 mm in size. After surgery and tumor removal, patients are typically offered chemotherapy, external beam radiation therapy, or <span>(alpha)</span>- or <span>(beta)</span>-emitter radionuclide therapy.

Recently, a number of works, in contrast to the traditional approach, have proposed using short-range radionuclides instead of <span>(alpha)</span>- or <span>(beta)</span>-emitters [1–3]. It is convenient to use Auger or conversion electron emitters as short-acting therapeutic agents. Auger electrons and conversion electrons have a short range and high specific linear energy loss in biological tissue: they are capable of damaging cells within a few tens of microns, but do not have a radiotoxic effect over long distances, without damaging healthy cells and tissues.
