Abstract

Nanoparticles (NPs) offer an innovative platform for targeted cancer diagnosis and therapy. Advanced synthesis and surface functionalization strategies facilitate reversible binding and triggered release of drugs. NPs are also excellent contrast agents for clinical imaging techniques. This book discusses current and future applications of functional nanoparticles in oncology, as well as strategies for tailoring novel multifunctional nanomaterials. Describes the various types of biocompatible nanomaterials with potential for use in nanomedicine. Explores all fields of application for nanoparticles in cancer diagnosis and treatment, from tumor targeting and imaging to radiotherapy.
