Engineering of gold nanorods as multifunctional theranostic agent for photothermal-enhanced radiotherapy of cancer

Radiotherapy (RT) is an important method in cancer treatment. Devising conveniently synthesizable and smart multifunctional radiosensitizers is of tremendous significance to improve the cure rate of RT. Gold nanorods (GNRs), which exhibit high X-ray absorption capacity and near-infrared (NIR) photot...
