Core Tip

Core Tip: Nanotechnology has become a new and popular technology in recent years. Combining nanotechnology with orthopedic medicine may open up new treatment methods for orthopedic diseases. Nanotechnology, such as metal nanoparticles, injectable hydrogels and nanofiber scaffolds, can improve the treatment of osteoarthritis, cartilage injury and sports injury. However, in the process of exerting its function, nanotechnology needs to be combined with many disciplines, and it also faces many ethical challenges, which need further research.
