ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are Drug Delivery Molecules (DDMs) which both facilitate functional imaging, as by PET or SPECT, and create a biological effect and methods of their use. These DDMs are variously designed to target specific receptors, then become internalized and then function biologically, as for purposes of cell destruction or therapy.
