Nanotechnology is an emerging branch of science, which deals with the designing of tools and devices of size 1–100 nm, with unique functions at the cellular, atomic and molecular levels. Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary field that has emerged due to the interaction of engineering, physics, chemistry and biology. This new field of nanotechnology is a result of rapid advances in science and technology that ultimately creates new opportunities for advancing medical science and disease treatment in human healthcare. Nanotechnology and nanomedicine are considered complementary disciplines, which aim at the betterment of human life. Applications of nanotechnology to medicine and physiology consist of materials and devices that are designed to interact with the body at the molecular scale with a high degree of specificity. Thus, in the present scenario, nanotechnology proves to be beneficial in solving problems in the field of medicine. In this review, the potential use of nanotechnology in clinical applications is discussed.
