Radioactive contamination is the uncontrolled distribution of radioactive material in a given environment.

Medical imaging is the process by which physicians evaluate an area of the subject's body that is not normally visible. Medical imaging may be "clinical", seeking to diagnose and examine disease in specific human patients (see pathology). Alternatively, it may be research-motivated, attempting to understand processes in humans or animal models. Many of the techniques developed for medical imaging also have scientific and industrial applications.
