"Describe how commercial radioisotopes are produced"

To what extent of detail is required?

So far i have mentioned the use of nuclear reactors and particle accelerators and their production of neutron deficient/rich isotopes, as well as providing examples eg. production of cobalt-60 in a nuclear reactor.

Is it necessary to describe vaguely what the process is and how a reactor/cyclotron operates?
