Sense（1）

(physiology, radiology) Any element, especially a radioisotope, that has a tendency to accumulate in bones.

Some isotopes that are not alpha-emitters are also "bone[-]seekers," and are not well eliminated. The result is that even a small quantity of these materials, retained in the body, may lead to depression of bone marrow activity, and to serious bone lesions.
