This review details how functional nanomaterials can be engineered to enhance phototherapies for cancer, enabling precise light-triggered drug delivery and thermal ablation.
AI-generated from the title and abstract; the full text is not read.
Key points
- Functional nanomaterials can be designed to act as theranostic agents for cancer phototherapy.
- These materials can absorb light to generate heat for photothermal therapy (PTT).
- Nanomaterials can also be engineered to release drugs upon light stimulation for photodynamic therapy (PDT) or chemotherapy.
- The combination of PTT and PDT offers synergistic therapeutic effects.
