What Are the Key Nanotechnological Tools Used in Cancer Screening?
Several nanotechnological tools are used in cancer screening, including:
Nanoparticles: Used for targeted imaging and drug delivery. Quantum Dots: Semiconductor nanoparticles that fluoresce under light, aiding in the visualization of cancer cells. Gold Nanoparticles: Enhance contrast in imaging techniques and can be used in photothermal therapy. Nanosensors: Detect cancer biomarkers in blood, urine, and other bodily fluids with high sensitivity.
