| Sumario: | Cancers including hematological malignancies and metastatic solid tumors are one of the life-threatening diseases to the general population, which have become a heavy burden for patients and their caregivers physically and mentally. Despite the great progression in preclinical and clinical studies, effective implementation strategies are urgently needed to optimize the advancements in cancer diagnosis and treatment. State-of-the-art updates have indicated the application of multifunctional nanotheranostics as an emerging diagnostic and therapeutic tool for cancer management. Herein, this chapter displayed the literature and description of various nanomaterial-based noninvasive diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for cancer administration from the view of nanomaterial classification and nanomaterial-based application in nanotheranostics as well as the promising perspectives and grand challenges in nanomedicine. Collectively, this review will provide overwhelming new references for cancer supervision and benefit the medical and pharmaceutical practice in the field of nanotheranostics. |
