A novel method for the diagnosis of atherosclerosis based on nanotechnology

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a global health concern, presenting significant risks to human health. Atherosclerosis is among the most prevalent CVD, impacting the medium and large arteries in the kidneys, brain, heart, and other vital organs, as well as the lower limbs. As the disease progresses, arterial obstruction can result in heart attacks and strokes. Therefore, patients with atherosclerosis should receive accurate diagnosis and timely therapeutic intervention. With the advancements in nanomedicine, researchers have proposed new research strategies and methods for atherosclerosis imaging. This paper summarizes some current research findings on the use of nanomaterials in diagnosing atherosclerosis and offers insights for optimizing the imaging applications of nanomaterials in the future.
