The Role of Nanotechnology in Healthcare and Beyond

Nanotechnology concerns the control of materials on the atomic or molecular scale and has widely spread through different fields, particularly within the medical one. As we approach the nanoscale – one billionth of a meter – we can create revolutionary methods for diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases. Some of these uses of nanotechnology include drug delivery systems, medicine diagnostic machines, and tissue engineering. Along with the healthcare sector, which nanotech is already affecting, it is being applied in numerous fields; however, the most inspiring developments might be observed in medicine.
