Curing Brain Tumors with Nanobots

Past research and experimentation have proven that gold-

nanoparticles with the help of nanotechnology and biology, highly
contribute to the medical field in this modern era, ranging from
development of diagnostic devices to drug delivery systems. Using
this same technology, theoretically we could significantly diminish
brain tumors by scattering the cytotoxicity into the flow of the blood
stream.
As gold is barely reactive and can safely pass through the body’s
systems, it makes a suitable medium to use for nanobots. A
nanobot can range from nanometers (10-9 m) to micrometers(10-6m),
it can easily travel through the brain’s capillaries which are about 2-5
micrometers.
Intraarterial Drug administration is a common and successful
neuro-oncologic application of IAC (internal carotid artery). Using
the same technique, we can inject our gold nanobots to the brain.
The carotids will eventually lead to the Circle of Willis, and to the
magnetic pull of the tumor, the nanobot will flow to the brain tumor
which is most likely to occur in the venous sinus, which is the main
vein that directs the blood flow back to the heart.
