Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for diagnosing and/or treating conditions, diseases, or disorders. The present invention uses nanoparticle-based assemblies, which comprise a nanoparticle; a surrogate marker; and a means for detecting a specific chemical entity. Such nanoparticle-based assemblies combine nanotechnology and sensor technology to provide an efficient and accurate means for diagnosing a condition, disease, or disorder as well as for focused treatment regimens.
