When I had the same test the hospital gave me a letter with the name of the isotope, when it was administered, Beq and half life. I was down to 1/64th of the original level when I went through YYZ and stood farther away than normal to play it safe.

You emit gamma rays with that isotope. So does fissionable bomb material.
