el guiado

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Science (general) Nanotechnology
Good afternoon!

I am working on a text about how nanotechnology is being developed in the field of medicine, amongst others.

Is this "targeting" as I am unable to find anything with "guide/guidance".

Here is the context:

El centro trabaja en diferentes alternativas para el guiado de fármacos a fin de reducir en un futuro estos efectos negativos del medicamento.

Thank you!

References would be helpful here:)

targeted drug delivery

Targeted drug delivery means getting the drug to the specific site.

Targeted drug delivery systems selectively transport drugs to diseased cells and tissue, thereby minimising the negative side-effects of these drugs in other areas of the body.
