Nanobots: The Leading Cause Of Cancer

Approach to Care Pathology and Nursing Management of Clients Health NRS - 410V Approach to Care of Cancer Cancer is a term used for diseases in which irregular cells divide without any control and have the capability to penetrate and infect normal body tissue through the blood and lymph system. Cancer is the second leading cause of mortality in the United States, exceeded barely by heart disease. According to the CDC Cancer Statistics and Data, there were more than 1.45 million people diagnosed with various kind of cancer between 1999 and 2007 and out of those more than 562,000 people died due to cancer (cdc.gov, 2012). Currently there are more than 200 different types of cancer that have been discovered. Cancer could be

Breakthroughs Science in this day and age has been able to produce many amazing, new technologies, but the nanorobot design will require more research and creations in the science world in order to be developed. Although nanorobots have been in the process of being designed, they are still very far from creating the working model. In order for this to happen, many breakthroughs in science must occur. These breakthroughs will need to include bio-receptors, machines small enough to work within your cells, and obtaining power to allow the nanobot to complete all its tasks.

The Impact of Stress on Cancer Cancer, medically called ‘tumorigenesis’ (Thaker, Lutgendorf, & Sood, 2007, p.430) occurs when cells in the body orient themselves for malignant growth. Such cells show ‘self-sufficiency in growth signals’, are ‘insensitive to anti-growth signals’ and have ‘limitless replicative potential’ (Thaker, Lutgendorf, & Sood, 2007, p.430). Once a particular set of cells become malignant, the malignancy can spread to other set of cells in different organs due to ‘crosstalk’ between the affected cells and their surrounding ‘tissues’ and ‘micro-environments’(Thaker, Lutgendorf, & Sood, 2007, p.430).

Strength Amber M. Jutte – 3rd Semester Nursing Student Edison State Community College Piqua, Ohio Strength “Strength does not come from physical compacity. It comes from an indomitable will.” - Gandhi Cancer Each day, hundreds of people find themselves face to face with the word “cancer.” There is an estimate of 4600 new cancer diagnosis each day. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the united states, and is a major health concern worldwide. However, over the past 3 decades the survival rate for all cancers has climbed over 20%.

Nanotechnology is the gateway to near limitless possibilities for the human race. It opens the window to a new realm we previously have never experienced-- Nanotechnology is a branch of engineering that deals with the manipulation of atoms at the molecular level. The Institute of Nanotechnology in the U.K. expresses it as "science and technology where dimensions and tolerances in the range of 0.1 nanometer (nm) to 100 nm play a critical role”. Once automated, the nanoparticles will infiltrate every aspect of our lives- from medical, engineering, biomaterials energy production, to name a few. Practically everything we use today could be replaced by nanomaterial in some way, and it even has the capability to create new materials.

Cancer known in medicine as a malignant neoplasm is one of the biggest killers worldwide. In 2007, cancer caused roughly 13% (7.9 million) of the planet’s deaths (Jemal, 2011). This will more greatly affect an aging society such as ours in years to come, and yet it is already the foremost cause of death in the developed world. The main reason cancer causes so many fatalities the body’s inability to mount an effective response to the failure of DNA replication within the body. This results in a mass

I find it astonishing that the human body is able to constantly monitor and repair and fend itself against foreign substances naturally, without any sort of direction. However, if the human body makes a singular error, and many faulty cells begin to continuously multiply, the body cannot mend itself, and cancer begins to form. Though modern science has created multiple different treatments for cancer, I want to be part of the complex puzzle in concocting a universal cure for all

The iKnife: Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, in a little over a decade, cancer will become the leading cause of death in the United States. The rate of new cases is expected to increase by 45% by 2030. (Wilson, 2014) Undoubtedly, this comes as no surprise to a populace that has seen an increasing number of their friends and family diagnosed with cancer. It seems to have become an epidemic, affecting both young and old, male and female, and rich and poor. For this reason alone, there is a growing interest in new and more effective treatments in the battle against this disease. Cancer research has vastly improved treatments and outcomes over the previous 50 years, starting with only a handful of treatments half a decade ago, to more than 170 FDA-approved anti-cancer drugs today. (Wilson, 2014) Still, new and better treatments that reduce recovery time and increase success rates are constantly pursued. There is promise for new technology called the iKnife, a cancer “sniffing” surgical scalpel; which is said to identify all of a the cancerous parts of a tumor so that it is removed with 100% accuracy. Should the iKnife prove to be what it is promised to be, not only will it improve overall outcomes for patients, it will also revolutionize the treatment of cancer entirely.

The National Cancer Institute states that “In 2016, an estimated 1,685,210 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the United States and 595,690 people will die from the disease” (“What”). Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, only behind heart diseases, because of this cancer is one of the most researched diseases, and is constantly making progress in prevention and control. Despite these things cancer will not be cured by 2050, but it will be easier to treat and control. Also it will be nearly impossible to spread a cure and capable doctors to third world countries in the next thirty four years. To cure cancer it must be completely understood by those who are researching it.

Cancer is very common throughout the United States and has shown increase numbers of cancers around the world. As the term cancer is referred to the condition where the body's cells begin to grow and reproduce in an uncontrollable manner. Cancer cells are able to invade and destroy healthy tissue, including organs. As cancer cells can sometimes begins in one part of the body before spreading throughout the entire body systems. Cancer was never a high-priority disease and was often pushed to the side due to the fact that there was no treatment, harsh conditions, and low diagnosis; but today's century we have the technology to overcome cases and able to handle them and find treatments for various cancers. There are many types of cancers that

Some new advances in science and technology opens up new opportunities in the fight against cancer, not only to treat the disease, but also to treat many forms of cancer permanently.

The Ins and Outs of Cancer Cancer has affected the lives of each and every one of us alive today. Many people have know someone with cancer, yet even those who haven't have been bombarded with constant reminders of its terrible threat. Although cancer is often referred to as

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. As a deadly disease that attacks the human body when some of the body’s cells begin to divide without stopping and spreads to the surrounding area, a definite cure has yet to be found. In 2008 approximately 7.6 million people died of cancer, about 13% of all deaths worldwide. (World Health Organization) The field of oncology, the study and treatment of tumors, continues to grow because of the growing need to find a cure for this brutal disease that claims so many lives. As a terminal disease to the body, there are many different types of cancer so there are also different types of treatment. However, to win the fight against cancer, detection and early treatment are equally vital

But today, we propose for Nanomedical robots, since they will have no difficulty in identifying the target site cells even at the very early stages which cannot be done in the traditional treatment and will ultimately be able to track
