Introduction
Nanorobotics technology machines or is field the of robots emerging creating whose
components are at or close to the microscopic scale of a nanometer (10 9 meters). Nanorobots are nanodevices that will be used for the purpose of maintaining and protecting the human body against pathogens.
NANOMEDICINE
The application of nanotechnology to the field of medicine is commonly called as Nanomedicine. Nanomedicine is the process of
diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease and traumatic injury , of relieving pain, and of preserving and improving human health.
Types of Nanorobots
Various forms of nanorobots are used in different field, but in medical field we use only three main types of Nanorobots: Respirocyte - An Artificial Oxygen Carrier Nanorobot; Microbivores - Nanorobots Artificial Phagocytes; Chromallocyte - Mobile Cell-Repair Nanorobot.
Components of nanorobots
Medicine cavity
A hollow section inside the nanorobot might hold small medicine or chemicals. The robot could release medication directly to the site of infection. doses injury of or
Electrodes
Two electrodes protruding from the nanorobot could kill cancer cells by generating an electric current, heating the cell up until it dies.
Powering of nanorobots
A nanorobot could use the patient's body heat to create power, but there would need to be a gradient of temperatures to manage it. Power generation would be a result of the Seebeck effect.
Applications
To cure skin diseases augment the immune system Devices working in the bloodstream Surgical aids new drug delivery solutions Implantable devices Diagnostic tools Repairing neurons Killing cancer cells Regenerating Tissues Super human powers
nibble away at arteriosclerotic deposits, widening the affected blood vessels, restore artery walls and artery linings to health, This would prevent most heart attacks.
Surgical aids
1. Operating Tools: Medical devices that contain nano and micro technologies will allow surgeons to:
perform familiar tasks with greater precision and safety, monitor physiological and biomechanical parameters more accurately, and perform new tasks that are not currently done.
2. Surgical Robotics: Robotic surgical systems are being developed to provide surgeons with unprecedented control over precision instruments.
2. Functional Drug Carriers- Nanotechnology offers interesting solutions is in the area of nanomaterjals that carry drugs to their destination sites and also have functional properties.
Implantable devices
Nanotechnology can new offer new implantable and/or wearable sensing technologies that provide continuous and extremely accurate medical information. e.g. 1. Retina Implants: Retinal implants are in development to restore vision by electrically stimulating functional neurons in the retina. 2. Cochlear Implants: A new generation of smaller and more powerful cochlear implants are intended to be more precise and offer greater sound quality.
Diagnostic tools
1. Genetic Testing- Nano and micro technologies provide new solutions for:
increasing the speed and accuracy of identifying genes and genetic materials for drug discovery and development, and treatment-linked disease diagnostics products.
2. Ultra-sensitive Labeling and Detection Technologies- Several new technologies are being developed to:
improve the ability to label and detect unknown target genes.
Repairing neurons
Application of magnetic nanotubes is a new way for treating and curing neurodegenerative diseases such as:
Alzheimer s disease and Parkinson s disease.
Cancer patients are usually anemic. X-rays and many chemotherapeutic agents require oxygen to be maximally cytoxic, so boosting systemic oxygenation levels into the normal range using respirocytes might improve prognosis and treatment outcome.
Regenerating Tissues
Nanotechnology will be assisting the new anti aging drive. Nanobots can be injected into our body and these nanobots will be capable of repairing damaged and old tissues.
Treatment of Anemia
Oxygenating respirocytes offer complete or partial symptomatic treatment for virtually all forms of anemia.
Respiratory Diseases
The devices could provide an effective longterm drug-free symptomatic treatment for:
asthma, hemotoxic (pit viper) neurotoxic (coral) snake bites; hypoxia, stress polycythemia and lung disorders..
Mouthwash
A mouthwash full of smart nanomachines could identify and destroy pathogenic bacteria while allowing the harmless flora of the mouth to flourish in a healthy ecosystem.
