Abstract
The great progress of genetics research, during 2015-2017, will certainly influence all medical specialties including nuclear medicine. In nuclear medicine there are still problems to solve as to differentiate between infection, inflammation and cancer etc. Furthermore, in dosimetry and radiation protection there are worldwide problems. It has been reported that (64) Cu-cetuximab immune-PET represented EGFR expression levels in ESCC tumors and that (177) Lu-cetuximab radioimmunotherapy effectively inhibited the tumor growth. Recent important research findings and few related suggestions for further research are mentioned related to Gastroenterology, Neohippocratic Medicine, the Respiratory System, Neurology and the Hayflick phenomenon. Perhaps we now live in the genetics transformation era, the Genomie's Era.
