How Can Nanotechnology Help in Diagnosing Gastritis?
Traditional methods for diagnosing gastritis often involve invasive procedures like endoscopy and biopsy. Nanotechnology offers non-invasive alternatives that can improve diagnosis accuracy and patient comfort. For instance, nanoparticles functionalized with specific biomarkers can be used in biosensors to detect the presence of H. pylori in breath or stool samples. These sensors can provide rapid and accurate results with minimal discomfort.
