摘要
Every day it becomes more evident the need for research on the use of nanomaterials in various fields of medicine, both in the early diagnosis of various diseases, such as its usefulness of drugs delivery systems, coating devices for clinical use, infection control and their possible involvement in gene therapy. These and future applications, as well as its effects due to their use, further justify the role of nanotechnology in medical activity.
