Nanotechnology Offering Cancer Treatment, Diagnosis and Surgery Solutions

January 12, 2016

(Australian Broadcasting Co.) – A team of Australian and international researchers have discovered how the use of nanomedicine could make it easier to detect cancer, deliver drugs to tumours and arm surgeons with greater accuracy when operating. The use of nanocrystals offers clearer images of cancer cells, which helps to improve surgical procedures, but the targeted approach can also speed up the recovery time for patients.
