Design of Nanostructures for Theranostics Applicationsfocuses on the theranostics applications of nanostructures. In particular, multifunctional nanoparticles for diagnostics and treatment of different diseases, including those relating to the blood-brain barrier, are discussed in detail. Chapters explore different type of nanostructures, covering design, fabrication, functionalization and optimization, helping readers obtain the desired properties. Written by a diverse range of international academics, this book is a valuable reference resource for those working in both nanoscience and the pharmaceutical industry. Explores how the design of a range of nanomaterials make them effective theranostic agents, including multifunctional core-shell nanostructures, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and quantum dotsShows how nanomaterials are used effectively for a range of diseases, including breast cancer, prostate cancer and neurological disordersAssesses the pros and cons of using different nanomaterials for different types of treatment | Design Of Nanostructures For Theranostics Applications by Alexandru Mihai Grumezescu, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
