In this book, the authors explore the pros and cons of combining biophysics with micro and nanorobots for cancer treatment. This book offers the most recent findings on employing nano/microrobots in biophysics for cancer treatment. Insightful analysis and commentary from the authors complement a comprehensive survey of recent advances and ground-breaking research in the field. Chapters are followed by examples that illustrate the key points or applications of the material covered in that chapter, bridging the gap between the theoretical framework presented here and the rigorous investigation into the subject matter that awaits the reader, once they have mastered the material presented in the book.
Key Features:
- This book contains the most up-to-date information on using nano/microrobots in biophysics to treat cancer.
- Presents micro/nanorobot-based motile targeting medical devices for tumour treatment. Applications are discussed, along with the potential for their translation into clinical practice.
- This book illustrates the central ideas or practical applications of chapter topics, showing how the reader can move from the background knowledge presented in the volume to real-world research.
- Extensive references will be included at the end of each chapter to enhance further study.
