Sumario:Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were considered a potential cargo for cancer therapy and diagnosis following researchers’ shared goal of finding a new delivery system to enhance the pharmacological performance of the administered drugs. To date, several excellent reviews have focused on the role of CNTs as drug delivery systems, although there is currently no existing study that gathers all the advances in research-connected carbon nanotubes-based assay development for the early detection of cancer. In this review article, we will focus on the emerging role of CNTs as anticancer detection agents.
