The Rise of Alpha-Emitting Radiopharmaceuticals: A New Era in Targeted Cancer Therapy
Imagine a microscopic sniper, capable of delivering a lethal blow to a single cancer cell while leaving its healthy neighbors virtually untouched. This is the promise of targeted alpha therapy, a revolutionary frontier in nuclear medicine that is rapidly transforming the treatment landscape for advanced malignancies. By harnessing the immense energy of alpha particles, scientists are finally unlocking a way to overcome the resistance that has long plagued traditional cancer therapies, ushering in a new era of precision oncology.
Introduction
For decades, the field of radiopharmaceuticals was dominated by beta-emitting isotopes like Lutetium-177. While effective, beta particles are relativel
