The rise of theranostics: Part 1 -- Gaining momentum

AuntMinnie

This theranostic therapy first demonstrated how using diagnostic imaging with a radioactive probe, gallium-68 (Ga-68 dotatate injection), could locate NETs on PET scans. After binding to the receptor, the drug works by entering the cell allowing radiation to cause damage to the tumor cells. with a growing theranostics practice.
