Abstract
Increasing number of new drugs, drug formulations and drug delivery systems is evaluated using noninvasive imaging methods. A successful use of new drugs and radiopharmaceuticals depends on their proven quality. This review provides a brief outline of the quality control procedures required for radiolabeled drugs within the context of the existing regulations.
