Synthesis of Radioluminescent CaF<sub>2</sub>:Ln Core, Mesoporous Silica Shell Nanoparticles for Use in X-ray Based Theranostics
X-ray radiotherapy is a common method of treating cancerous tumors or other malignant lesions. The side effects of this treatment, however, can be deleterious to patient quality of life if critical tissues are affected. To potentially lower the effective doses of radiation and negative side-effects,...
