Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanomedical Device and Systems Design: Challenges, Possibilities, Visions serves as a preliminary guide toward the inspiration of specific investigative pathways that may lead to meaningful discourse and significant advances in nanomedicine/nanotechnology. This volume articulates the development and implementation of beneficial advanced nanomedical diagnostic and therapeutic devices and systems, which may have strong potential toward enabling myriad paradigm shifts in the field of medicine. In addition, it presents conceptual and laboratory-derived examples of how sophisticated, highly efficient, minimally invasive, and cost-effective nanomedical diagnostic and therapeutic strategies might facilitate significantly increased accessibility to advanced medical procedures to assist those in both the developing and developed worlds. Explorations of nanomedicine in human augmentation, longevity and space travel are also undertaken.
