This book delves into the transformative potential of microbots in the minimally invasive diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). By enhancing colonoscopy accuracy and optimizing drug delivery systems, it paves the way for more targeted and effective treatments. The introductory chapter sets the stage by examining advanced diagnostic and therapeutic methods for CRC, addressing the disease’s prevalence, and evaluating the limitations of invasive techniques. It also highlights non-invasive screening options and cutting-edge imaging technologies, which are crucial for making diagnostics less intrusive and more accessible.
In addition, the book provides a thorough review of techniques designed to customize microbots for the effective targeting of cancer cells. It includes a comparative analysis with nanobots, emphasizing their potential roles in cancer diagnostics and therapy. The intersection of photodynamic therapy and microrobotic technology is explored in depth, offering insights into the future landscape of cancer treatment.
Focusing on clinical applications, this book offers valuable insights into the deployment of mobile microrobots in medical imaging, alongside an in vivo perspective on colorectal cancer. It ultimately addresses the broader implications of bio-nanotechnology and microrobots in gastrointestinal diseases and cancer treatment. Intended for researchers, students, and professionals in oncology, nanotechnology, and medical sciences, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the latest advancements in the field.
