Exploring Nanotechnology
In the fight against cancer, nanotechnology introduces unique approaches to diagnosis and treatment that could not even be imagined with conventional technology. New tools engineered at sizes much smaller than a human cell will enable researchers and clinicians to detect cancer earlier, treat it with much greater precision and fewer side effects, and possibly stop the disease long before it can do any damage. Imagine a nanoparticle that can be used to light up a tumor in an MRI, destroy cancer cells by converting magnetic fields into heat, and allow the physician to visually track the progress of treatment.
