They are medicines that are made with radioactive elements. The idea is the radiation can be used to detect things on a scan or can be used to treat cancer by killing the cancer cells.

Most of them are used in imaging and are super common in hospitals. The cancer treatment ones are a bit more complicated so there's a lot less of them and they are usually for special cases. They are still cool though.

I have heard it used in therapy like with anxiety, depression, or aggression issues. That's cool that they had you listen to it for sleepwalking, and it worked.

It could have. Music calms people down really well. I also use it to focus a lot.
