RESUMEN
La nanotecnología es una ciencia enfocada al estudio y la manipulación de partículas sólidas coloidales de tamaños que oscilan entre 10 y 1.000 nanómetros, que, a su vez, pueden ser usadas ampliamente en el campo quirúrgico como elementos de diagnóstico temprano de lesiones tumorales, marcadores tumorales intraoperatorios o distribuidoras de medicamentos a blancos específicos, entre otros.
ABSTRACT
Nanotechnology is the science that focuses on the study and manipulation of solid colloidal particles ranging in size from10 nm to 1000 nm. The manipulation of these particles and elements can be widely applied in surgery, with elements such as those that allow the early diagnosis of tumor lesions, intra-operative tumor markers, or the delivery of drugs to specific targets, among others.
