Contents:
Introduction to Bio-Nanotechnology -- 1. Gold nanoparticles for noninvasive radiofrequency cancer hyperthermia; Introduction -- 2. Silk fibroin nanoparticles and cancer therapy -- 3. Animal models in cancer nanotechnology -- 4. Surgical implications of surface texturing in breast implants -- 5. Nanoscale engineering of silk fibroin scaffold architecture to repair patient-specific cancer defects -- 6. Magnetic nanoparticles and cancer -- 7. Nanotechnology in neurosurgical oncology -- 8. Nanotechnologies for brain tumor therapy.
Summary: This book covers current nanotechnology-based nanotherapeutics involving gold nanoparticles, colloids, gels, magnetic nanoparticles, radiofrequency, gene therapy, biological particles, and the intermolecular interactions associated with nanoparticle based cancer therapy in vivo. Both scientific and clinical aspects are considered to make the connection between cancer and effective drug delivery and therapeutic strategies.
