Nanomedicine

Zusatztext

A comprehensive and multidisciplinary guide to nanomaterials-based medicine Nanomedicine is the study and application of nanomaterials-based medical techniques. In recent years it has very rapidly become indispensable in a huge range of medical contexts, from analysis of extreme life events to diagnosis and treatment of life-threatening intractable diseases, such as cancers and cardiovascular diseases. It has already transformed both research and clinical outcomes in many areas of medicine and promises to continue as the cutting-edge research and clinical area for the next generation of medical specialists. Nanomedicine: Fundamentals, Synthesis, and Applications constitutes a comprehensive guide to this subfield and its recent advances. Beginning with a brief history of the field and introduction to its core principles, it thoroughly treats recent developments in this vital and ever-growing field. Its multidisciplinary approach equips the reader with a systematic overview of these life-saving developments in medicine. Nanomedicine readers will also find: * Edited by a leading researcher with decades of experience in both North America and China * Detailed treatment of subjects including nanocarriers, nanomaterial bioprobes, multi-function nanodrugs, nanomedicine-mediated immunotherapy and/or physical ablation, and more * A comprehensive volume treats every facet of the subject Nanomedicine is a vital resource for biochemists, biomedical engineers, pharmaceutical chemists, physicists, and professionals in the biotechnological industries, as well as for clinicians looking to familiarize themselves with nanomedical techniques and instrumentation.
