摘　　要：Nuclear medicine plays an irreplaceable role in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors.Radiopharmaceuticals are important components of nuclear medicine.Among the radiopharmaceuticals approved by the Food and Drug Administration(FDA),radio-tracers targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen(PSMA)and somatostatin receptor(SSTR)have held essential positions in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancers and neuroendocrine neoplasms,respectively.In recent years,FDA-approved serials of immune-therapy and targeted therapy drugs targeting programmed death 1(PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1(PD-L1),human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2),and nectin cell adhesion molecule 4(Nectin 4).How to screen patients suitable for these treatments and monitor the therapy?Nuclear medicine with specific radiopharmaceuticals can visualize the expression level of those targets in systemic lesions and evaluate the efficacy of treatment.In addition to radiopharmaceuticals,imaging equipment is also a key step for nuclear medicine.Advanced equipment including total-body positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT)and positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging(PET/MRI)has been developed,which contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of tumors,as well as the development of new radiopharmaceuticals.Here,we conclude most recently advances of radiopharmaceuticals in nuclear medicine,and they substantially increase the“arsenal”of clinicians for tumor therapy.
