MEDICAL ADVANCEMENT WITH AI AND NANOBOTS

NANOTECHNOLOGY

NANOTECH IN HEALTHCARE

  • Nanotechnology itself represents the physical manipulation on the atomic level.
  • The combination of nanotechnology and AI in healthcare leads to interesting new concepts.
  • Nanotechnology promises to revolutionize drug delivery, diagnostics, gene therapy, and many other applications.

NANOBOTS

NANOBOTS

  • Nanorobots containing small motors are allowed to navigate to particular regions of the body.
  • Nanorobots can be ingested or injected and deliver themselves to the disease site, take pictures and send them to the doctor or patient.

INVENTOR

Adriano Cavalcanti

Known as nanorobot pioneer, Cavalcanti is the medical nanorobotics inventor for the pratical hardware architecture of nanorobots, which was integrated as a model based on nanobioelectronics for applications in environmental monitoring, brain aneurysm, diabetes, cancer and cardiology.

Also, he it is assumed that he might be inventing more nanobots and AI for the medical industry.

RESEARCH

RESEARCH ON NANOBOTS

  • Researchers at Arizona State University, for example, have developed a so-called “origami nanorobot” that consists of a flat sheet of synthetic DNA that is coated in a blood-clotting enzyme and can be folded into various shapes.
  • The nanosized DNA sheet is then injected into the bloodstream and is programmed to seek out tumor cells, attach to their surface and inject them with the blood-clotting enzyme, which starves the tumor cell of the blood it needs to survive.
  • This nanoscale robot helps overcome one of the trickiest problems in cancer treatment, which is how to destroy cancer cells without harming healthy tissue nearby.

IMPACT

PEOPLE & SOCIETY

IMPACT ON PEOPLE AND SOCIETY

  • Nanotechnologies may provide new solutions for the millions of people in developing countries who lack access to basic services, such as safe water, reliable energy, health care, and education.
  • The 2004 UN Task Force on Science, Technology and Innovation noted that some of the advantages of nanotechnology include production using little labor, land, or maintenance, high productivity, low cost, and modest requirements for materials and energy.
  • However, concerns are frequently raised that the claimed benefits of nanotechnology will not be evenly distributed between the people.
  • Longer-term concerns center on the impact that new technologies will have for society at large, and whether these could possibly lead to either a post-scarcity economy, or alternatively exacerbate the wealth gap between developed and developing nations.

ECONOMY & POLITICS

IMPACT ON POLITICS & ECONOMY

  • A wearable remote monitoring arm strap, for instance, can continuously track patients’ vital signs, and send them for analysis by AI technologies.
  • Nurses are automatically alerted if there is any deterioration, instead of having to check on their patients with daily home visits, potentially saving up to 301.8 million hours and $6.1 billion.
  • Healthcare professionals can also use wearable activity trackers before and after surgery to monitor patient recovery.
  • By analysing step counts, AI technologies can reduce the risk of re-admissions.

ENVIRON-MENT

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

  • Nanotechnologies are even helping to prevent infectious wounds through smart bandages that contain nanoparticles of blood-clotting agents, growth hormones or sensors that can detect infection and release antibiotics.
  • In many cases, these bandages are made from biofriendly materials that allow them to be left on the wound until they dissolve.
  • A remedial solution is the use of green technology or green manufacturing. This is an environmentally friendly technology which is developed and used to conserve natural resources.
  • This technology aims at producing nanomaterials with lesser raw materials, minimum energy consumption, and minimum waste production.

USES

USES

  • One of the most intriguing areas of research is the use of nanorobots in cancer treatment.
  • Researchers are already testing DNA robots to find and eliminate cancer cells.
  • Advances in molecular robot technology are increasingly being used in the healthcare industry to complete difficult operations and reduce human error.
  • Nanotechnology will be employed in the medical field to help with disease identification and treatment, such as diabetes.

BENEFITS AND DRAWBACKS

BENEFITS AND DRAWBACKS

  • Nanobots are much smaller in size, which makes them suitable for performing an incredible task that requires a fine and precise scale of operation.
  • They can improve performance and deliver the desired results in a short time as compared to the existing time method of operations.
  • Additionally, they can reduce human errors and can deliver tailored and customized treatment. Overall they are intended to increase healthcare efficiency and effectiveness.
  • On the other hand, the biodegradable/non-biodegradable materials used in the nanobots must be safely removed from the body.
  • In some cases, it may trigger some harmful activity in the body.
  • Moreover, the privacy and the security of personal health data have always been major issues in the healthcare industry.
