Design Principles of Hybrid Nanomaterials for Radiotherapy Enhanced by Photodynamic Therapy
Radiation (RT) remains the most frequently used treatment against cancer. The main limitation of RT is its lack of specificity for cancer tissues and the limited maximum radiation dose that can be safely delivered without damaging the surrounding healthy tissues. A step forward in the development of...
