Abstract
The medical application of nanotechnology to the diagnosis, management, and treatment of disease is nanomedicine. Nanomedicine seeks to manufacture drugs and other products that are packaged into nanoscale systems for improved delivery. Although many nanomedicines are already in use or are being studied in clinical trials, many challenges and risks impede bringing these drugs to market.
Keywords
nanomedicine; nanotechnology, nanoparticles.
