3. Introduction
NanoMedicine exploits the improved physical, chemical
and biological properties of materials at the nano-scale,
and offers the potential to enable early detection,
prevention, improved diagnosis and imaging, treatment
of diseases.
4. Introduction
NanoMedicine is defined as the
monitoring, repair, construction and
control of human biological
systems at the molecular level,
using engineered nanodevices and
nanostructures.
6. Advantages
• Drug delivery to the exact location.
• Lesser side effects.
• Molecular targeting by nano
engineered devices
• Detection is relatively easy.
• No surgery required.
• Diseases can be easily cured.
7. Disadvantages
• Not practical yet.
• High cost.
• Implementation
difficulties.
8. Conclusion
The recent advances in
nanotechnology-related drug delivery ,
diagnosis , and drug development are
beginning to change the landscape
medicine .
Nano therapies could , in the long
term , be much more economical ,
effective and safe and could greatly
reduce the cost of current medical
procedures .
