Description

Manal Mohamed Elhassan Taha and co-authors map a decade of research on graphene in cancer care. Graphene-based materials are being tested for finding and treating tumors, yet no one had charted the whole field. The team pulled 4,917 records from the Scopus database for 2016 to 2025 and used mapping tools to trace growth, teamwork, and themes.

Output grew about three percent a year, with China ahead in both papers and citations, and 21 core journals carrying much of the work. Long-running themes include graphene oxide, drug delivery, and sensors, while newer work turns to plasmon-based sensing and brain tumor detection. Links between papers show a shift toward precise diagnosis and targeted therapy. The authors offer the map as a guide for researchers, funders, and policy makers weighing where the field is strong and what blocks its move to the clinic.
