Cancer is one of the leading causes of death, affecting millions of people each year. But cancer treatment has not been very successful due to its limited drug access to cancer tissue, intolerable toxicity, and multiple drug resistance. In recent years, new methods of cancer treatment have been proposed to better identify tumor biology and advances in nanotechnology. Prevention, early diagnosis and treatment have been the main applications of nanotechnology in cancer, In this study, which was conducted in the form of a review through the collection and summary of research, the purpose of the application of nanotechnology in the treatment of cancer is discussed. Liposomes, nanoparticles, polymeric micelles, nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, and gold nanoparticles have been the most important tools used to detect cancerous tumors through imaging and drug delivery systems. They have also helped minimize problems and damage to healthy cells as a result of radiotherapy and chemotherapy and other common cancer treatments. The results of this study show that despite the unique and special features of nanotechnology tools, it is possible to quickly diagnose and treat most cancers.
