This brief provides an insight into the present scenario of the
role of nanotechnology in the diagnosis and treatment of lung
cancer at an early stage. Currently, lung cancer is the subject of
major concern owing to the very high mortality rate throughout the
world. Most of the conventional treatment methods such as surgery,
chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc., fail to prolong life of the
patients. Incidents of recurrence are also very common in case of
lung cancer. Researchers have shown that nanoparticles may act as a
powerful anti cancer tool, especially for lung cancer. Unique
surface properties and easy surface functionalization of
nanoparticles enable early detection, diagnosis, imaging and
treatment of lung cancer. The authors have elaborately presented
how various nanoparticles (natural, semi synthetic and synthetic)
may help in the treatment of lung cancer. They have also detailed
works of various scientists who succeeded in developing effective
nanoparticles and enabled very specific lung cancer therapy without
any undesirable side effects and minimized death.
