Abstract
We have been hearing about nanotechnology for a long time back in both science fiction and in the media, but that not much has come of it so far. However, new platforms of nanotech-based treatments are on the horizon, and are ready to change the world of medicine.
Basically nanotechnology is the field that works at the nano scale range (One nanometer is one billionth of a meter).1 Nanomedicine is linked nanotechnology for medical purposes. They are some other terms including biomedical nanotechnology, bionanotechnology and nanobiotechnology. The potency of nanotechnology took a long time to show its face, but it is finally starting to arrive in the form of sophisticated medical interference that will proudly change the nature of healthcare in the near future.
