Neuroendocrine tumor is one of popular diseases, and somatostatin receptor antagonists have been considered as promising agents for neuroendocrine tumors. Imaging of somatostatin receptor is useful approach on the diagnosis and therapy of neuroendocrine tumors. Thus, several radiolabeled somatostatin derivatives have been developed by scientists, and used for patients with neuroendocrine tumors. In particular, some radiopharmaceuticals for neuroendocrine tumors were approved by FDA. In this highlight review, the development of important radiolabeled somatostatin derivatives is described.

Ever since it was first introduced as a method of scintigraphically measuring regional myocardial perfusion, myocardial perfusion study has been widely used in patients diagnosed or suspected with coronary artery diseases, and continuously improved upon. In addition to the technological enhancement of nuclear medicine equipments, the innovation of radiopharmaceuticals used in the cardiac exams were important contributors to such improvement. Besides the cardiac perfusion studies, new radiopharmaceuticals that visualize fat metabolism or receptors of the sympathetic nervous system have successfully been applied to clinical practice. More information can be collected before diagnosing coronary vascular disease, evaluating the patient's condition, or assessing therapeutic effects. In this review article, the clinical efficacy and characteristics of radiopharmaceutical products tailored for cardiac SPECT that are commonly used in Korea currently, plus the ones not being used yet but have proven value are briefly described.

By considering the biological properties of a tumor, it should be possible to realize better results in cancer therapy. PET imaging offers the opportunity to measure tumor growth non-invasively and repeatedly as an early assessment of response to cancer therapy. Measuring cellular growth instead of energy metabolism showed offer significant advantages in evaluating therapy. Thymidine and its derivative nucleoside compounds can be changed to mono, di- and tri- phosphate compounds by thymidine kinase and then be incorporated into DNA. Their bindings are increased in highly proliferating cells due to the high DNA synthesis rate. To evaluate cell proliferation, many kinds of thymidine and uridine derivatives have been labeled with positron emitter and radioactive iodine. Compared to radiopharmaceuticals which have radioisotope labeled base ring such as pyirmidine, the radiopharmacuticals which have radioisotope labeled sugar ring are more stable in vivo and have metabolic resistance. The biological properties such as DNA incorporation ratios are highly dependent on their chemical structures and metabolic processes. This overview describes synthesis of radiopharmaceuticals and their biological properties for imaging of tumor cell proliferation.

$^{211}At$ is an alpha emitting radionuclide, which can be produced using cyclotron with alpha beam. In addition, its strong linear energy transfer and iodine-like chemistry make that $^{211}At$ is one of the most attractive radionuclide in the field of targeted alpha therapy. In this review, production, labeling, and radiopharmaceuticals of $^{211}At$ will be discussed.

The development of methods for the inert and stable radiohalogenation of targeted radiopharmaceuticals is a prerequisite for real-time diagnosis and therapy using radiohalogenated radiopharmaceuticals. Radiohalogenated carboranes demonstrate superior stability in vivo and versatile applications compared with directly labeled tyrosine analogues or synthetically modified organic compounds. Herein, we focus on the most common approaches for the radioiodination (¹²³l, ¹²⁴l, ¹²⁵l, and ¹³¹l) of carborane derivatives.
