Abstract

Nanotechnology is a science that involves the manipulation of atoms and molecules to perform processes, building things and living beings. This study aimed to map the technological innovation of studies on the use of nanotechnology in medical treatments, in order to check the growth of patent applications in this area in Brazil through deposits made by the National Institutes of Science and Technology (INCTs). Patents were analyzed deposited at the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) by INCTs. The results showed that five INCTs focused on nanotechnology have research related to the diagnosis and medical treatment, and by mapping could be verified which technologies on the use of nanotechnology in medical treatments are being created, contributing to its application in the market.
