Gold Nanoparticle Mediated Phototherapy for Cancer

الملخص EN

Gold nanoparticles exhibit very unique physiochemical and optical properties, which now are extensively studied in range of medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

In particular, gold nanoparticles show promise in the advancement of cancer treatments.

This review will provide insights into the four different cancer treatments such as photothermal therapy, gold nanoparticle-aided photodynamic therapy, gold nanoparticle-aided radiation therapy, and their use as drug carrier.

We also discuss the mechanism of every method and the adverse effects and its limitations.
