Abstract
Skin cancer has developed as one of the most common types of cancer in the world, with a significant impact on public health impact and the economy. Nanotechnology methods for cancer treatment are appealing since they allow for the effective transport of medicines and other biologically active substances to specific tissues while minimizing harmful consequences. It is one of the most significant fields of research for treating skin cancer. Various nanomaterials have been employed in skin cancer therapy. The current review will summarize numerous methods of treating and diagnosing skin cancer in the earliest stages. There are numerous skin cancer indicators available for the prompt diagnosis of this type of disease. Traditional approaches to skin cancer diagnosis are explored, as are their shortcomings. Electrochemical and optical biosensors for skin cancer diagnosis and management were also discussed. Finally, various difficulties concerning the cost and ease of use of innovative methods should be addressed and overcome.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Skin Cancer is a peer-reviewed, Open Access journal that publishes clinical and translational research on the detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of skin malignancies. The journal encourages the submission of original research articles, review articles, and clinical studies related to pathology, prognostic indicators and biomarkers, novel therapies, as well as drug sensitivity and resistance.
