General Health
Imagine having an army of nanorobots working within your body all the time, clearing up excess plaque in your arteries, alerting you to nutritional deficiencies, and monitoring the function of your organs.
You’d be able to make course corrections on a daily or even hourly basis, giving your body exactly what it needs. Information from nanorobots will also allow you to contact your doctor for assistance with problems you may not have noticed for months.
According to research, having another chronic disease, notably cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic renal disease, respiratory disease, or arthritis, considerably increases your lifetime risk of cancer. If nanorobots are created to recognize, diagnose, cure, or even prevent other diseases, the prevalence of cancer among cancer patients will undoubtedly decrease.
While no human trials have been done, research into nanorobotics and healthcare is still in its infancy. But, the potential for a paradigm shift in how we approach health care is enormous. Cancer occurs when the delicate interplay between all of the body’s systems is disrupted. If we can successfully deploy nanorobots that can not only recognize but also treat system failures, cancer will be a thing of the past.
