Modeling of near infrared laser-mediated plasmonic heating with optically tunable gold nanoparticles for thermal therapy
Clinical hyperthermia refers to treatment of tumors by heating the lesions between 40 and 45° C. Several clinical trials have demonstrated that hyperthermia provides significant improvements in clinical outcomes for a variety of tumors, especially when combined with radiotherapy. However, its routin...
