Radiotheranostics
Radiotheranostics, or radiotherapy, is a subspecialty of theranostics that uses similar pharmaceuticals for both imaging and radiation therapy. In both therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals and diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals, the radionuclide is interchangeable, with the diagnostic radiopharmaceutical often being a gamma or PET emitter, and the therapeutic radiopharmaceutical often being a beta or alpha emitter[21].
