Review
Nanotechnology may be our best hope for overcoming many of the barriers faced by today’s drugs in the battle against cancer. The combined creative forces of engineering, chemistry, physics, and biology will beget new and hopefully transformative options to old, intractable problems.
– Piotr Grodzinski, National Cancer Institute, from the Foreword
Book Description
Encouraging communication between clinical investigators and nanoscientists, Nanotechnology for Cancer Therapy focuses specifically on effective and promising nanoscience and nanotechnology strategies for imaging and treating cancer. Among the various approaches considered, nanotechnology offers the best promise for the targeted delivery of drugs and genes to a tumor site and for alleviating side effects of chemotherapeutic agents. Renowned industrial and academic researchers describe the advantages of nanoparticles as sensing, delivery, image enhancement agents for cancer treatments, and various types of useful nanoparticles such as polymeric nanoparticles and dendrimers.
