Nanotechnology in cancer—theragnostics

Nanotechnology is rapidly evolving domain, has changed the very foundation of cancer diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Since everything is made up of atoms and molecular matter, nanotechnology has provided a way to rearrange and restructure matter on the atomic scale thus allowing us to reach down to the very roots of any problem. This emerging field is multidiscipline science, essential for Electronic Engineering,Drug-delivery, Optical Computer Tomography Photo-Thermal Therapy, Imaging, Sensing, Catalysis etc. Nanotechnology had improved cancer detection and diagnosis in inceptive stage. The present article gives the information on use of nanotechnology to solve the enigma in the field of oncology. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date of Submission: 19-02-2020 Date of Acceptance: 03-03-2020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
