"Nanotechnology and Nanomaterials in the Treatment of
Life-threatening Diseases" takes a scientific approach to
nanotechnology and nanomaterials applications in medicine, while
also explaining the core biological principles for an audience of
biomedical engineers, materials scientists, pharmacologists, and
medical diagnostic technicians. The book is structured by major
disease groups, offering a practical, application-based focus for
scientists, engineers, and clinicians alike. The spectrum of
medical applications is explored, from diagnostics and imaging to
drug delivery, monitoring, therapies, and disease prevention. It
also focuses specifically on the synthesis of nanomaterials and
their potential health risks (particularly toxicity).
Nanomedicine the application of nanomaterials and devices for
addressing medical problems has demonstrated great potential for
enabling improved diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of many
serious illnesses, including cancer, cardiovascular and
neurological disorders, HIV/AIDS, and diabetes, as well as many
types of inflammatory and infectious diseases.
Gain an understanding of how nanotechnologies and nanomaterials can
be deployed in the fight against the major life-threatening
diseases: cancer, neurological disorders (including Alzheimer's and
Parkinson's), cardiovascular diseases, and HIV/AIDSDiscover the
latest developments in nanomedicine, from therapies and drug
delivery to diagnostics and disease preventionThe authors cover the
health risks of nanomaterials as well as their benefits,
considering toxicity and potential carcinogens"
