Nanotechnology deals with the design, production, examination, and
application of materials and systems with dimensions ranging from 1 to 100
nanometers. Nanoscale materials exhibit unique properties that go beyond the
classical physical behavior observed at the macroscopic and microscopic scales.
These advantages include a high surface area-to-volume ratio, high mechanical
strength, quantum effects, unique optical properties, and enhanced electrical
and thermal conductivities. Therefore, nanomaterials enable groundbreaking
applications in medical diagnosis (nanodiagnosis), treatment (nanotherapy), and
regenerative medicine processes. Nanodiagnosis encompasses the evolution of
nanodevices and imaging devices to detect and analyze diseased conditions,
cellular abnormalities, and abnormal cells. Nanotherapy offers effective nano
systems by applying more effective treatment while minimizing side effects.
Regenerative medicine aims to repair or regenerate damaged tissues and organs
using nanomaterials. The healthcare sector was reported to be the most
commercial sector of the modern nanotechnology market in 2020, with a 19.5%
capital share. Leadership in this field stems from the increasing use of
nanotechnology in the development of nanodiagnostics, nanosurgical robots, cell
repair applications, nanobiosensors, imaging, and targeted drug delivery. This
study will address recent developments in the application of nanotechnology in
the field of medicine.
