Radiopharmaceuticals are used daily in medical care as both diagnostic and therapeutic agents. With the expertise of nuclear pharmacists, radiopharmaceuticals can be used to precisely diagnose and treat many conditions. Radiopharmaceuticals can act like "flashlights," illuminating certain organs or cells through advanced imaging techniques. They can also act as "hand grenades," delivering a focused and fatal blow to cancer cells. 

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Andrew Brown, Manager of Quality Assurance in the Pharmacy Practice Division of Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions at Cardinal Health. Listen as he discusses the practice of nuclear pharmacy, new regulatory standards for the field, and the future of radiopharmaceuticals.
