Solid and hollow gold nanoparticles as radiosensitisers in combination with X-ray radiation and targeted radiopharmaceuticals
Radiotherapy is currently employed in the treatment of 50% of cancer patients. Cancer's heterogeneous nature mean optimal use of radiotherapy will be through combination and targeted therapies. Studies investigating the radiosensitising potential of solid gold nanoparticles have reported succes...
