这篇文章介绍了纳米医学的一些一般背景，特别关注正在这个新兴领域进行的一些投资。然而，这篇文章的大部分内容是对纳米医学影响可能最为显著的两个领域的探索：诊断、医疗记录和治疗，包括手术和药物输送。每次讨论都包括对这些应用中可能出现的一些伦理和社会问题的调查。
This essay presents some general background on nanomedicine, particularly focusing on some of the investment that is being made in this emerging field. The bulk of the essay, however, consists of explorations of two areas in which the impacts of nanomedicine are likely to be most significant: diagnostics and medical records and treatment, including surgery and drug delivery. Each discussion includes a survey some of the ethical and social issues that are likely to arise in these applications.
