Nanotechnology Is About Small Things And Medicine Usually Deals With Bigger Things - With Patients And Their Diseases. The Ultimate Goal Of All Medical Sciences Is The Healing Of Diseases Whenever Possible, Otherwise The Abatement Of Suffering. The First Step Of A Successful Medical Treatment Is The Correct Diagnosis Of The Disease Or Disease Condition, Based On Clinical Knowledge And Experience And On Diagnostic Tools That Give Insight Into Macroscopic, Microscopic, And Biochemical Properties Of The Disease Process. Nanomaterials Can Improve Currently Available Diagnostic Applications In Medicine And Especially Polymer-Based Nanostructures Have An Enormous Potential To Revolutionize The Way How Clinicians Diagnose Diseases Correctly And Efficiently. The Second Step When Treating Patients Is A Powerful And Specific Therapy That Is Low In Side Effects, That Can Prolong The Survival Of The Patient Or That Can Lower The Burden Of The Disease. Again, Polymer-Based Nanostructures Are Very Promising Novel Tools That Might Change The Way How Certain Diseases Are Being Treated.
