Nanomedicine is considered as the future of modern medicine. Hence, serious global
efforts are being made for the development of nanopharmaceuticals. Among all the nanopharmaceuticals
developed so far, radiopharmaceuticals constitute only a very small portion, as noted
in the published literature. The procedures for development of nanoradiopharmaceuticals
are complex. In this paper we discuss the results of a research directed at developing
nanoradiopharmaceuticals based on three different types of nanopharmaceuticals as
alternative drug delivery systems.
