Abstract
Background: The use of nanobiomaterials is increasing each day. Among the immense variety of nanomaterials developed and studied the hydroxyapatite is one of the most ones.
Objective: In this study we developed and tested nano-hydroxyapatite dopped with Ho-166 for bone cancer. Results: The results showed that the nano-hydroxyapatite dopped with Ho-166 has a great affinity for the bone. Conclusion: The pre-clinical studies support the use as a nano-radiopharmaceuticals for bone cancer treatment and diagnosis.Keywords: Radiopharmaceuticals, nanotechnology, oncology, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy.
