Enhancement of radio-sensitivity of colorectal cancer cells by gold nanoparticles at 18 MV energy

Enhancement of radio-sensitivity of colorectal cancer cells by gold nanoparticles at 18 MV energy

Objective(s): Taking advantage of high atomic number of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in radiation dose absorbing, many in vitro and in vivo studies have been carried out on using them as radio-sensitizer. In spite of noticeable dose enhancement by GNPs at keV energies, using this energy range for radio...
