Future+Impacts

.......... Since modern medicine, physicians have tried to find a way in order for the human body to heal itself faster. There have been huge medical

breakthroughs, with different new technologies, to help physicians understand the human body even further. One thing is still unchanged,

from ancient physicians to modern doctors, they still need the help from the human body in order to repair and heal itself.

There is still no way in order to precisely place human cells in order to restructure the body, stem cell research has made remarkable progress in this

area, but it can not specifically target the cells on a molecular level.

.......... The only way to place cells in different organs of the body would be to use tools as small as the cells. That is where nanomedicine comes in play.

Nanomedicine is the use of nanotechnology in medicine, and nanotechnology is the use of small robots at the molecular level that can with strategic

intent to repair damaged cells. Nanomedicine could start being used for human treatment regularly as early as 2020.

.......... If the future is as great as everyone expects, nanomedicine will help to identify, treat and to cure different diseases. Doctors in the future would

have a completely different role in our recovery. They would only act like consultants since the nanorobots would do the diagnosis, and the treatment,

thus completely eliminating the need for any surgical procedure (Freitas, 2010).





.......... This graph shows how nanomedicine has been evolving ever since it was invented. The graph explains how fast and how far this technology will reach

2050. The graph is also separated by colors, and by sections, thus helping organize and understand even better how each of the fields will evolve

(Berger, 2008). .......... This graph clearly shows how the commercial availability will increase, and how probably in a few years we might be doing things like

curing cancer with just a couple pills, or identifying any type of diseases with just a drop of blood. The future for this technology seems to be limitless, and

will go to a point that would seem impossible just a few decades ago.
