Nanotechnological Innovations in Healthcare

Abstract

Nanotechnology is a concept much older and more prevalent than you may think.[19] This article will delve into the applications of nanotechnology in various fields of medicine. Using ideas and research, old and new, we explore how nanotechnology saves, improves, and, in some cases, enables life.[15] This model led us to create a paper covering a diverse array of medicinal fields in which nanotechnology has the most opportunity and effect. Frankly, the fields we chose have nothing in common other than significant and interesting applications of nanotechnology. However, even with our diverse array of fields, we only cover a fraction of nanotechnology’s massive impact across medicinal practice altogether. Nanotechnology has broken into almost every major sector of medicine, finding use from routine practices, such as drug delivery, all the way to extraordinary procedures, such as bone regeneration. We explore the applications of nanotechnology in the cardiovascular, reproductive, antiviral, skeletal, and surgical fields. Our studies show that nanotechnology is no longer limited to science fiction and has a major impact that will only grow with time and technology.[19] Doctors and scientists are making full use of nanotechnology’s capabilities by using it in any and all cases that require precision and effectiveness that is either impossible or extremely difficult and dangerous when performed by human hands. This makes many treatments less hazardous and more effective, saving and improving an exponential number of lives as time goes on. [15]
