Bismuth‐based nanomaterials have been used for cancer diagnosis and therapy studies due to their unique physical and chemical properties. In their Minireview on page 17405 ff., Y. Cheng and H. Zhang highlight diverse bismuth‐based nanomaterials for cancer theranostics, and introduce various strategies for enhancing their theranostic efficacy, improving their biocompatibility and targeting ability, and engineering multimodel theranostic platforms.
