8.6 Ex Vivo Navigation

In this final Section of Chapter 8, we shall discuss ex vivo navigation -- the task of navigating the spaces external to the human body. A comprehensive treatment is beyond the scope of this introductory text, so the following discourse is necessarily brief. From the nanomedical perspective, there are two distinct regimes in which ex vivo navigation may be necessary or useful: the epidermal regime and the exodermal regime.
