Nanotheranostics typically use nanoparticles that are engineered to carry both therapeutic agents and diagnostic markers. These nanoparticles can be tailored to target specific cells or tissues, such as cancer cells, thereby enhancing the precision of both diagnosis and treatment. Once administered, these nanoparticles can be tracked using imaging techniques like MRI or PET scans, providing real-time feedback on the distribution and effectiveness of the treatment.
