The Use of Nanorobotics in the Treatment Therapy of Cancer and Its Future Aspects: A
Review
What is the purpose or objective of the research?
The purpose or the objective of the research is to use nanotechnology in the treatment
therapy of the medical field especially in diagnostic and treating cancer.
What is the type of research was conducted? Why do you think so?
The type of research is applied research. It is applied research since the goal of the
researcher is to find an efficient and no-risk damage method for treating cancer.
What is the problem?
Surgery, Radiation, and Chemotherapy are the only available cancer treatment, and
these three-methods risk damage to normal body tissues or incomplete eradication of
cancer.
What is the major conclusion of the paper? Do you think the paper adequately supports the
conclusion?
The potential of nanotechnology can positively be diagnosed and treat cancer. While the
ability to industrialize technology at this scale has only lately (around the 1980s) been
created by scientists and engineers, there has been significant progress in the
development of nano-based cancer medicines and diagnostics. Yes, the paper
adequately supports the conclusion since there are currently multiple clinical trials
underway for numerous diagnostic and therapeutic compounds made possible by
nanotechnology. Revealing that the researcher is nearing their goal.
