This chapter discusses how nanoparticles and multimodal nano-imaging are bringing closer to the moment where imaging and therapy converge. This means that the diagnosed illnesses can be treated in situ based on the imaging result allowing personalized Nano-medicine. There are already theranostic nano-medicines that can do precise drug delivery only to the targets that are seen and approved by radiology and nuclear medicine tools. In this chapter, we also discuss the already existing emerging techniques and their challenges and implications on the traditional pharma industry and startup-driven biobusiness.
