In the present scenario of medical innovations, nanotechnology is having its wave on the treatment and prevention of disease, especially by enabling early disease detection, as well as precise and effective therapy. The growing interest in the medical applications of nanotechnology has given the path to the emergence of a new field called nanomedicine. In this paper, the various diseases and disorders that can be treated by nanotechnology is discussed. The positive impacts of nano technology can be seen in surgery, diagnosis, implant technology and tissue engineering. Most of the various ongoing research in the development of nanomedicines shows a positive result. But still many question regarding the safety aspects remains unanswered.
