Nanoparticles based therapeutic and theranostics technique is becoming an active area of research in nanomedicine. Nanomedicine as a major application of nanotechnology enables efficient diagnosis procedures, imaging system, therapeutic techniques, and drug delivery system. This research presents an overview of methods that enable integrating both diagnosis and therapeutic techniques which increase efficacy and reduce time. Hence, we look forward on the power of such theranostics techniques which involves the use of magnetic and radioactive nanoparticles. By improving the sensitivity, biocompatibility, and stability of magnetic and radioactive nanoparticles CGT and theranostics procedures can be enhanced. These techniques are presented by comparing and contracting with other therapeutic techniques such as radiation therapy. More specifically, the potential role of magnetic and radioactive nanoparticles in cell therapy, Gene therapy, and theranostics procedure is discussed. Customary, these nanoparticles are evaluated for magnetic fluid hyperthermia, magnetic resonance imaging, and treatment of malignant disease such as cancer. Moreover, they are assessed for the nano based drug delivery, nanocarriers, and nanozymes. Among the therapeutic techniques, nanobased cell therapy, gene therapy, and theranostics technique are the focus of this research. The research also presents environmental, health, medical challenges of both magnetic and radioactive nanoparticles. The research also presents proposed solutions for minimizing the health risk effects of both magnetic and radioactive nanoparticles. It also suggests AI based detection, monitoring, therapeutic, and theranostics procedures.
