This work is dedicated to Angela Bracco in recognition of her contributions to the study of the Pygmy Dipole Resonance (PDR) using isoscalar probes. This approach is feasible due to the inherent isospin mixing of PDR states. In these cases, the key observable is the inelastic cross section. This article provides a brief review of such measurements and the corresponding calculations performed using a semiclassical model.
