Hi. One example is radioactive thallium. When injected, it tends to be taken up by muscles that are active, particularly the heart. This is used to find INACTIVE areas of heart tissue, areas which are not getting enough blood flow.

Barium is used as a radioactive trace. I think that is what you mean; hard to tell.
