Reviews
In this complex and multidisciplinary field, the book Theranostics and Image Guided Drug Delivery offers a comprehensive and well-balanced view of state-of-the-art methods and agents available today, with emphasis on theranostic approaches that have the promise of clinical translation in the near future. A major merit of this book is the combination of an up-to-date overview of the more classical methodologies such as image-guided, hyperthermia-triggered drug release, with an introduction to less advanced and less known techniques like microwave imaging or capsule endoscopy and their potential use in theranostics. -- Dr. Eva Toth, Dr. Sara Lacerda Centre de Biophysique Mol8culaire, CNRS, Orl8ans (France) * ChemMedChe, DOI: 10.1002/cmdc.201800464 *
