Self‐Regenerating Photothermal Agents for Tandem Photothermal and Thermodynamic Tumor Therapy

Small Methods
AbstractSmall molecule‐based photothermal agents (PTAs) hold promising future for photothermal therapy; however, unexpected inactivation exerts negative impacts on their application clinically. Herein, a self‐regenerating PTA strategy is proposed by integrating 2,2′‐azino‐bis(3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid) radical cation (ABTS•+) with a ...

Carbon Nanohorns as Photochemical and Photothermal Agents

ASME 2009 Summer Bioengineering Conference, Parts A and B, 2009
Laser therapies based on photochemical or photothermal mechanisms can provide a minimally invasive and potentially more effective treatment alternative to conventional surgical resection procedures by delivering prescribed optical/thermal doses to a targeted tissue volume with minimal damage to intervening and surrounding tissues. However laser therapy
