New Research Develops Nano-Robots That Eliminate Cancer Tumors | health guideline 360
[Pic: source scitechdaily ] Spanish scientists have developed a nanobot that, when introduced into the bloodstream, can eliminate cancerous tumors in the bladder by up to 90 percent . The Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia, in collaboration with ICFO - The Institute of Photonic Sciences, and the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona), and Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB), has created a robot with a diameter of 450 nanometers. To visualize it, its image needs to be magnified two billion times. Bladder cancer in men is the most common type of cancer affecting men . Although the mortality rate is relatively low, all tumors tend to recur within five years. New Research About Nano-Robots In a study conducted on mice, researchers observed that the use of small robots could eliminate the need for multiple treatments for tumors. Current treatments for bladder cancer include surgery and chemotherapy , with costs exceeding $65,000. The reason is the need
