Radiopharmaceuticals are therapeutic and therapeutic agents of which radioactive nuclide is an integral part. Radiopharmaceuticals (RPP) differ from traditional medicines in the absence of any pharmacodynamic effect on the human body, which is due to the introduction of small amounts of a labeled chemical compound. The effect of therapeutic RPPs is due not to the influence of a chemical compound, but to the radiation of a radionuclide included in its structure. The diagnostic use of RPPs is based on the features of their pharmacokinetics, which allows you to obtain an image of an organ and determine its anatomical and topographic characteristics or assess the functional state of an organ or system without violating the physical conditions of its operation.
