Squaraine nanoparticles for optoacoustic imaging-guided synergistic cancer phototherapy
The unique optical properties of squaraine dyes make them promising for cancer phototheranostics, but the reported squaraines for in vivo treatments mainly rely on their photothermal effect, where monotherapy cannot achieve the desired therapeutic effect.
