Principles of Nanomedicine

The scope of nanotechnology in medical applications has expanded fast in the last two decades. With unprecedented materialistic properties, nanoscale materials present with unorthodox opportunities in a wide range of domains, including drug delivery and medical imaging. This book assembles the various facets of nanomedicine and discusses the key issues, including physicochemical properties that enhance the appeal of nanomedicine. Since the publication of the first edition in 2019, the field of nanomedicine has continued to evolve at a rapid pace. This updated edition captures some of the new developments in the field. It begins with a short history of nanotechnology and a discussion on the fundamental concepts about the extraordinary properties demonstrated by nanoscale materials and then unfolds into multiple chapters that illustrate the uses of different nanomaterials in drug delivery, sensing, and imaging. The book is an excellent resource for physicians, PhDs, postdocs, and general readers involved in nanomedicine research to learn and understand the scope and complexity of the subject.
