Abstract
The Gastro Oesophageal Junction (GEJ) Cancer, a form of cancer at the junction where the oesophagus meets the stomach is mainly associated with Barretts oesophagus and Gastro- Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) affecting both the oesophageal and gastric tissues. The asymptomatic characteristic of this disease leads to the increased growth and development of the cancerous cells, also affecting the concentration of sodium ions. However, using gold nanoparticles can help in detecting the cancer at early period due to its high sensitivity,specificity and anticancer property. Usage of gold nanoparticles is now been investigated and proven to be advantageous due to its ability to detect extracellular cancer biomarkers and cancerous cells and in other in-vivo imaging techniques. This detailed current study focuses on the early detection of GEJ cancer using gold nanoparticles can reduce the need of surgery by preventing the growth and mutation of cancerous cells
