RESUMEN
This document is intended as a supplement to the EANM "Guidelines on current Good Radiopharmacy Practice (cGRPP)" issued by the Radiopharmacy Committee of the EANM (Gillings et al. in EJNMMI Radiopharm Chem. 6:8, 2021). The aim of the EANM Radiopharmacy Committee is to provide a document that describes how to manage risks associated with small-scale "in-house" preparation of radiopharmaceuticals, not intended for commercial purposes or distribution.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The Editorial Board of EJNMMI Radiopharmacy and Chemistry releases a biannual highlight commentary to update the readership on trends in the field of radiopharmaceutical development. MAIN BODY: This selection of highlights provides commentary on 21 different topics selected by each coauthoring Editorial Board member addressing a variety of aspects ranging from novel radiochemistry to first-in-human application of novel radiopharmaceuticals. CONCLUSION: Trends in radiochemistry and radiopharmacy are highlighted. Hot topics cover the entire scope of EJNMMI Radiopharmacy and Chemistry, demonstrating the progress in the research field, and include new PET-labelling methods for 11C and 18F, the importance of choosing the proper chelator for a given radioactive metal ion, implications of total body PET on use of radiopharmaceuticals, legislation issues and radionuclide therapy including the emerging role of 161Tb.
