High quantum efficiency ruthenium coordination complex photosensitizer for improved radiation-activated Photodynamic Therapy

Traditional external light-based Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)’s application is limited to the surface and minimal thickness tumors because of the inefficiency of light in penetrating deep-seated tumors. To address this, the emerging field of radiation-activated PDT (radioPDT) uses X-rays to trigger ph...
