Cancer Theranostics, 2nd Edition is a book that examines integrated diagnostic and therapeutic modalities across medicine, pharmacology, and life sciences. The text supports scientific investigation in oncology by evaluating dual-purpose platforms engineered to combine non-invasive diagnostic monitoring with targeted therapeutic administration.

Its thematic scope highlights recent updates regarding new molecular imaging probes and experimental techniques designed to support early cancer detection across medicine and life sciences. Coverage details molecular imaging-guided cancer therapy while examining nanoplatforms that combine diagnostic contrast agents and therapeutic elements into single delivery systems to advance experimental treatment modalities.

A defining feature of this second edition is the addition of new material focused on DNA theranostics and RNA theranostics. This advanced scientific content directly aligns with the educational and analytical requirements of medical physicists, physician scientists, and clinical fellows.
