Theranostics is a rapidly advancing field that is driving significant advancements in the healthcare industry by providing individualized medical solutions. Demand for theranostics is increasing over time and has led to the creation of theranostics-enabling high-tech technological centers. This review investigated the potential advantages and drawbacks of consolidating theranostics resources within technologically advanced facilities, particularly in developing nations, and led to three main observations: 1) The centralization of theranostics resources can lead to improved research, cost efficiency, and quality of healthcare services; 2) Developing countries may encounter hurdles such as resource allocation, infrastructure development, and skill acquisition, but these risks can be mitigated; 3) High-tech centers can play a major role in fostering innovation and advancing theranostics industry in these countries. In conclusion, this paper provides insights into the potential of high-tech centers as a pivotal point in the evolution of healthcare in developing countries. It calls for more funding support, in-depth research and collaborative efforts to overcome the challenges and harness the full potential of theranostics, as it has already occurred in some countries.
