What are Some Applications of Functional Imaging in Nanotechnology?
Functional imaging enhanced by nanotechnology can be applied in multiple areas:
Cancer Detection: Nanoparticles can target and highlight cancer cells, allowing for early detection and treatment monitoring. Neuroimaging: Nanotechnology-based contrast agents can cross the blood-brain barrier, providing detailed images of brain activity and pathology. Cardiovascular Imaging: Nanoparticles can be used to visualize and assess blood flow, vessel integrity, and plaque formation in cardiovascular diseases.
