How do I replace missing data with other values?

Hi guys,
I have some radiation data taken every 30 mins I’m trying to use, the dataset occasionally has some missing values, labelled ‘NaN’.
I have a series of equations which can be used to estimate the radiation (won’t mention them here as they’re not relevant to the problem) in case of missing collected data. I want to use the estimated values to replace any ‘NaN’ encountered.
My raw radiation data is called ‘radi’.
My code so far is:
if isempty(radi)
% LONG SERIES OF EQUATIONS
Rn=%some terms classified in equations;
else
Rn=radi;
end
This hasn’t worked however and Rn values are just being taken as radi values, and when radi shows ‘NaN’, Rn just comes out with no value on a graph, instead of taking the estimated Rn I want it to take.
I have tried isnan instead of isempty and this creates a new issue to do with vector sizes.
Long story short, is there a better method to replace my missing data (NaN) with the equations so that my radiation data set is full?
Thanks, Rob

isnan is the correct way to detect and replace nans.
Rn=radi;
Rn(isnan(radi))= ---- something else ----
