Abstract
Theranostic nanoagents possess the potential to greatly enhance diagnosis and treatment of disease, as they provide for the incorporation of multiple functionalities such as targeting, imaging, and therapy within a single nanoscaffold. Theranostics has a major role in diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, infection, and cardiac disorders, which need personalized methods for treatment and monitoring. This personalized approach prevents the adverse effects associated with drugs, such as those at a high dosage that may lead to drug resistance, relapse, and incomplete remission. The chapter reports the role of theranostic nanoagents for various diseases.
