Abstract
Dispensing includes all steps in the handling of radiopharmaceuticals between production and the administration to the patient. It has been considered here in its broadest context and will include general aspects of Good Radiopharmacy Practice as well as organizational and legal aspects. A discussion of some expected lines of developments and the future prospects for radiopharmacy is also included.
