Nanomaterials for Diagnosis and Treatment of Breast Cancer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789999314657)

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, and the second rank in cancer incidence worldwide. So, early detection of breast cancer by screening is a key solution to reduce mortality. Mammography is currently used as a noninvasive method for breast cancer screening. However, this method suffers from the disadvantages including usual false negative results, high rate of false-positive data, incurred cost and required expertise. New methods based on nano and biomaterials can be a very good alternative to the current methods of cancer detection, including mammography. In this book, a number of those methods have been examined. Also, several nanosystems have been introduced to carry drugs, including chemotherapy drugs, to reduce their side effects and improve efficiency.
