The concept of targeted drugs is not new, but dates back to 1906 when Ehrlich 1 first postulated the 'magic bullet'. The durability of this concept is a strong indication of its appeal, but the 'magic bullet' continues to be a challenge to implement in the clinic. The challenge has been on three fro
The use of nanotechnology in drug delivery and imaging in vivo is a rapidly expanding field. The emphases of this review are on biophysical attributes of the drug delivery and imaging platforms as well as the biological aspects that enable targeting of these platforms to injured and diseased tissues
