Abstract

In coming years, nanotechnology is likely to have a significant impact in different fields like
medicine and electronics. Nanorobotics is emerging as a demanding field dealing with
miniscule things at molecular level. Nano robots perform a specific task with precision at
nanoscale dimensions. Nano robots are especially used for studies on Alzheimer disease and
cancer treatments. These can be seen as the first Nano medicines, with potential application in
medicine. Present day treatment includes surgeries which are considered outdated when
compared to today’s technology.
