The high death rate in cancer, for example, oral squamous cell carcinoma is usually ascribed to the troubles in distinguishing the illness at an early treatable stage and war with cancer is still on. Extraordinary research has prompted a progressively complete understanding of cancer at the hereditary, sub-atomic, and cell levels giving a road to strategies for expanding early analysis and treatment of oral cancer. Nanotechnology is the study of the little the exceptionally little. It is the utilization and control of issue at a small scale. At this size, particles and atoms work in an unexpected way, and give an assortment of astounding and intriguing employments. These nanoparticles can be utilized to distinguish or screen cancer. In this article we will show how the gold nanoparticles detect the cancer and help in treating the cancer.

Keywords: Gold nanoparticles, Photothermal therapy (PTT), Photodynamic therapy (PDT), MRI.
