The book Nanotechnology of Medicine is structured in four chapters. Nanotechnology is a cutting-edge field that manipulates matter at the nanoscale (1-100 nanometers) to create materials, devices, and systems with novel properties and functions. In medicine, it opens revolutionary perspectives for diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases, fostering personalized, effective, and minimally invasive care. Nanoparticles can transport drugs directly to diseased tissues, such as tumors, reducing side effects and increasing therapeutic efficiency. They may be functionalized to recognize specific cell receptors, enabling highly targeted therapies. Nanotechnology also supports the development of nanosensors and contrast agents that allow early disease detection at the molecular level. For instance, gold and magnetic nanoparticles are already used in advanced imaging techniques such as MRI and CT.
