Theragnostics in nuclear medicine constitute an essential element of precision medicine. This notion integrates radionuclide diagnostics procedures and radionuclide therapies using appropriate radiopharmaceutics and treatment targeting specific biological pathways or receptors. The term theragnostics should also include another aspect of treatment: not only whether a given radioisotopic drug can be used, but also in what dose it ought to be used. Theragnostic procedures also allow predicting the effects of treatment based on the assessment of specific receptor density or the metabolic profile of neoplastic cells. The future of theragnostics depends not only on the use of new radiopharmaceuticals, but also on new gamma cameras. Modern theragnostics already require unambiguous pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic measurements based on absolute values. Only dynamic studies provide such a possibility. The introduction of the dynamic total-body PET-CT will enable this type of measurements characterizing metabolic processes and receptor expression on the basis of Patlak plot.
