Historio
Radium was discovered by Marie Curie and Pierre Curie in 1898.

They extracted the radium compound from a uraninite sample.

Radium was isolated in its metallic state by Marie Curie and André-Louis Debierne in 1910 through the electrolysis of radium chloride by using a mercury cathode and distilling in an atmosphere of hydrogen gas.

Aplikoj
Radium was formerly used in self-luminous paints for watches, nuclear panels, aircraft switches, clocks, and instrument dials.

Radium chloride was used in medicine to produce radon gas which in turn was used as a cancer treatment.

The isotope 223Ra is currently under investigation for use in medicine as a cancer treatment of bone metastasis.
Radium is highly radioactive and carcinogenic
