Nanotechnology

At the atomic, molecular and macromolecular level, the development of engineering devices is known as nanotechnology. Nanoparticles have potential applications in the medical field, particularly in diagnostics and therapy. Nanotechnology devices are being developed for the diagnosis of cancer and infectious diseases that can aid in the early diagnosis of the disease. Advances in nanotechnology have been observed in the areas of drug discovery, drug delivery and gene delivery. Nanoparticles can be constructed with various methodologies so that the effect can be targeted at the desired site. In this review, the application of nanoparticles in medicine for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes can be used at the clinical level.
