Gold Nanoparticles as a Potent Radiosensitizer: A Transdisciplinary Approach from Physics to Patient
Over the last decade, a growing interest in the improvement of radiation therapies has led to the development of gold-based nanomaterials as radiosensitizer. Although the radiosensitization effect was initially attributed to a dose enhancement mechanism, an increasing number of studies challenge thi...
