Positron emission tomography (PET) provides quantitative information in vivo with ultra‐high sensitivity but is limited by its relatively low spatial resolution. Therefore, PET has been combined with other imaging modalities, and commercial systems such as PET/computed tomography (CT) and PET/magnetic resonance (MR) have become available. Inspired by the emerging field of nanomedicine, many PET‐based multimodality nanoparticle imaging agents have been developed in recent years. This Minireview highlights recent progress in the design of PET‐based multimodality imaging nanoprobes with an aim to overview the major advances and key challenges in this field and substantially improve our knowledge of this fertile research area.
