Abstract
Healthcare is one of the most essential fields in providing accurate and fast medical care. With the advancement of technology, nanosensors have become a new tool that has enabled early diagnosis and continuous monitoring of diseases with high accuracy. With the ability to identify molecular and cellular changes, nanosensors can accurately detect biomarkers of diseases even in the initial stages and provide detailed information about the state of the body, especially in complex and costly diseases such as cancer. However, in this process, there are challenges such as biocompatibility and long-term stability of nanosensors in biological environments, immune reactions, and the possibility of their destruction. The present article has identified the challenges and evaluated the new methods of this technology by systematically reviewing the application of nanosensors in healthcare. This article aims to provide a comprehensive view of how to use nanotechnology as nanosensors in healthcare. The findings show that using nanosensors in the healthcare field can increase the accuracy of disease diagnosis (ADD) by 35 % and improve the quality of personal health monitoring (PHM) by 23 %. Also, this technology has reduced diagnostic response time (DRT) by 21 %. Finally, this research has taken a practical step towards further developing the application of nanosensors in the healthcare field by providing valuable recommendations and examining open issues.
期刊介绍:
Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research is an open access journal dedicated to the research, design, development, and application of bio-sensing and sensing technologies. The editors will accept research papers, reviews, field trials, and validation studies that are of significant relevance. These submissions should describe new concepts, enhance understanding of the field, or offer insights into the practical application, manufacturing, and commercialization of bio-sensing and sensing technologies.
The journal covers a wide range of topics, including sensing principles and mechanisms, new materials development for transducers and recognition components, fabrication technology, and various types of sensors such as optical, electrochemical, mass-sensitive, gas, biosensors, and more. It also includes environmental, process control, and biomedical applications, signal processing, chemometrics, optoelectronic, mechanical, thermal, and magnetic sensors, as well as interface electronics. Additionally, it covers sensor systems and applications, µTAS (Micro Total Analysis Systems), development of solid-state devices for transducing physical signals, and analytical devices incorporating biological materials.
