In recent years diagnosis and treatment in medicine have important advantages by the use of nanoparticles. Of great interest results the modality, with which they diffuse into the human body, and/or in specific human organs; the diffusion is indeed one of the three most important parameters for transport processes in solid state physics and soft condensed matter, also at nanolevel. A new appeared analytical “time-domain” Drude-Lorentz-like model for classical, quantum and relativistic transport in nano-systems is demonstrating high generality and good fitting with available experimental literature data. The range of application is very large, due to a gauge factor inside the model, comprehending all sectors of medicine. An interesting analysis related to the diffusion of nano-substances in the human body through nanoparticles indicated in nanomedicine is considered in this paper.
