Abstract

Diagnosing and then treating disease defines theranostics. The approach holds promise by facilitating targeted disease outcomes. The simultaneous analysis of finding the presence of disease pathophysiology while providing a parallel in treatment is a novel and effective strategy for seeking improved medical care. We discuss how theranostics improves disease outcomes is discussed. The chapter reviews the delivery of targeted therapies. Bioimaging techniques are highlighted as early detection and tracking systems for microbial infections, degenerative diseases, and cancers.

Keywords: Extracellular vesicles; Inflammation; Microbiological delivery; Nanotheranostic; Neurodegeneration; Stimuli based delivery.
