Nanoscience and Nanotechnology for Smart Prevention, Diagnostics and Therapeutics : Fundamentals to Applications

samples and reagents, user-friendliness, portability, and capacity to perform point-of-care (POC) applications. Nanomaterials are widely used in imaging due to many factors, including: their signal generation and amplification abilities; the ongoing development of reliant new imaging techniques, such as photoacoustic imaging and Raman imaging; their targeting potential, due to the possibility of functionalizing their surface with cancer-targeting moieties; their multimodality, since some nanomaterials can generate signals for more than one imaging technique; and their affordability. Modern therapeutics explores the various nanotechnological advances to cure the site-specific cancer treatment most prominently. The book explores the fundamentals of nanomaterials and discloses their direct application to the biomedical field. Finally, the book discusses future therapeutic applications of nanotheranostics.AudienceThe book will be read by scientists, researchers, and post-graduate students in the

biomedical-related engineering field, nanoscience and nanotechnology, materials science, and bionanotechnology. [Publisher's Text]
