Radiosensitizing high-Z metal nanoparticles for enhanced radiotherapy of glioblastoma multiforme

Abstract Radiotherapy is an essential step during the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), one of the most lethal malignancies. The survival in patients with GBM was improved by the current standard of care for GBM established in 2005 but has stagnated since then. Since GBM is a radioresistan...
