The most common application of nanotechnology to the field of medicine is the use of nanoparticles for cancer detection, monitoring and treatment. Many of the biological processes that cause cancer occur at the nanoscale. It is therefore possible to manipulate the tumor environment using nanotechnology for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
Nanomedicine is the application of nanotechnology to the field of medicine, often using materials at the nanometer scale.
