Radiopharmaceutical Therapy (RPT) or Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) is a medical specialty using very small amounts of radioactive compounds, called radiopharmaceuticals, to diagnose and treat various diseases, like cancer. Once injected into the patient, the radiopharmaceutical finds its way to the tumor through the bloodstream and binds to the tumor specific receptor according to a lock and key principle.
