P

ET radiopharmaceuticals are extensively used all over the world for different

diagnostic and therapeuticapplications. Although

18

F-FDG is themost common

tracer being used in PET diagnosis, many other cyclotron and generator produced

radiopharmaceuticals are dragging more attention to cover the known limitations

of FDG. Theranostics are trending now as a successful combination of a predictive

biomarker with a therapeutic agent that showing confident achievements in

specific targeted therapy.
