Abstract
The literature data and own investigations of the use of the nanotechnologies in medicine have been analyzed in the article. First investigations in the field of nanotechnology made the basis of new decisions in medicine, pharmacology, gene engineering and robot technology. Miniaturisation defines new chemical, physical and biological characteristics of biological objects, which differ from macroobject's characteristics. Study of this unique properties allows developing new technologies and methods in medicine. Nanomedications are used for diagnostic of different conditions, in the first place, cancer diseases. Nanoparticles can be mediators of effective substations or be active drug components. The use of nanotechnology allows reducing the dose of medicine and makes the treatment more safe. Fulerens, nano dispersible silica oxide, nanocaps, liposoms, created by nanotechnology are used in medical practice. It was established that suspension of nano dispersible silica oxide decreases toxicity of antituberculosis drugs, chemical substances of different structure.Entities:
