BME-SPRINGER 2022 : Targeted Cancer Therapy in Biomedical Engineering

This book will offers potential role of BME which is used in diagnosing (e.g., body scanners) and treatment (radiation therapy and minimal access surgery in order to prevent various diseases). In recent years, an important progress has been made in the expansion of biomedical microdevices which has a major role in diagnosis and therapy of cancer. When fighting cancer, speed is of the utmost importance. A microfluidic chip developed by Michigan engineers has enabled a breakthrough in testing the efficacy of specialized cancer drugs.
Effective cancer-targeting therapies will require both passive- and active targeting strategies and a thorough understanding of physiologic barriers to targeted drug delivery. Targeted cancer treatments in development and the new combinatorial approaches show promise for improving targeted anticancer drug delivery and improving treatment outcomes.
This book will discuss about all advancement and innovation in field of BME that improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients. This book will be focused on bioengineering approaches to improve targeted delivery of cancer therapeutics, which include particles, targeting moieties, and stimuli-responsive drug release mechanisms.
