Nanotechnology has the potential to revolutionize healthcare for the next generation through the three key areas: Diagnosis, Prevention and Treatment. Recent advances in nanotechnology have lead to the development of the new field of nanomedicine which includes many applications of nanomaterials and nanodevices for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The same physical and chemical properties that make nanomaterials so attractive may be associated with their potentially calamitous effect on cell and tissues. The driving force behind the significant benefit of nanotechnology is that biological structures are within the size scale that researchers are now able to manipulate and control. Investigators are looking to nanotechnology to develop highly sensitive disease detectors, drug delivery systems that only target the disease and not the surrounding healthy tissues.</span></span></span></p>

Many cancer cells actually change the chemicals on their surface, so are easy to identify. Most of the cells grow faster or change shape. Every cancer involves a genetic change that causes a difference in the chemicals inside the cell. This review discusses the development of new therapies related to cancer detection, analysis, diagnosis and treatment. Stress were also given on nanoanalytical methods and nanodevices such as dendrimers, quantum dots, cantilevers, SPIO, CNT devices, nanobots employed in cancer therapy.</span></span></span></p>
