Abstract
Radiopharmaceuticals are drugs used in treatment or diagnosis that contain a radioactive part, usually a pharmaceutical part in their structure. Adverse drug reactions are harmful and unexpected responses that occur when administered at normal doses. Although radiopharmaceuticals are regarded as safe medical products, adverse reactions should not be ignored. More serious adverse reactions such as myelosuppression, pleural effusion, and death may develop in therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals due to their use at higher doses than those used in diagnosis. Therefore, monitoring adverse reactions and reporting them to health authorities is important. This review aims to provide information about adverse reactions that may be related to radiopharmaceuticals used in treatment.
期刊介绍：
Applied Radiation and Isotopes provides a high quality medium for the publication of substantial, original and scientific and technological papers on the development and peaceful application of nuclear, radiation and radionuclide techniques in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, biology, medicine, security, engineering and in the earth, planetary and environmental sciences, all including dosimetry. Nuclear techniques are defined in the broadest sense and both experimental and theoretical papers are welcome. They include the development and use of α- and β-particles, X-rays and γ-rays, neutrons and other nuclear particles and radiations from all sources, including radionuclides, synchrotron sources, cyclotrons and reactors and from the natural environment.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria.
Papers dealing with radiation processing, i.e., where radiation is used to bring about a biological, chemical or physical change in a material, should be directed to our sister journal Radiation Physics and Chemistry.
