  • Abstract:
  • Radiopharmaceuticals are made of radioactive materials called radioisotopes. Radiopharmaceuticals are exclusive pharmaceutical preparations containing radioisotopes and are used in research, diagnosis or treatment in major clinical fields. They are radioactive reagents used in the field of nuclear medicine, which can show high and precise localized radioactivity in target tissues. However, recently with the emergence of some new radionuclides and radiopharmaceuticals for the treatment of cancer, neuroendocrine disorders and other diseases, this sector of nuclear medicine has made considerable progress. The establishment of radiopharmaceuticals is for the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer, hyperthyroidism, bone pain metastasis, renal insufficiency, heart and brain perfusion and many other diseases. Radioactive materials can also be used to sterilize heat-labile materials, such as syringes, catheters, vitamins, hormones, and surgical dressings. The field of nuclear medicine has the advantages of tumor localization, safe diagnosis, no accumulation of radiation, and high therapeutic effect. This review focuses on the production and therapeutic application of radiopharmaceuticals containing functional radioactive atoms.
