A Step Forward in Breast Cancer Research: Gold Nanoparticles as Photothermal Therapy Enhancers

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been widely used and characterized for multiple biomedical applications, including the enhancement of photothermal therapy (PTT). AuNPs present a particular plasmon resonance band and are able to convert the absorbed optical radiation into heat, which validates their...
