This review shows some basic information regarding the relatively new and one of the promising areas, called "theranostics' and also discusses its basic principles. Special attention is paid to the study of approaches in selecting the most appropriate in the application of radioisotopes for solutions appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Also presented the main directions in the work with monoclonal antibodies and their use in radionuclide theranostics.

The capacities of scintigraphy with 199Tl chloride, a 201Tl chloride analog, in addition to routine visualization of malignant tumors of the locomotor apparatus, have revealed its untypical variants.
Objective: to study the specific features of 199Tl chloride scintigraphic visualization of malignant tumor processes in the locomotor apparatus.
