Definition
Plasmonic photothermal therapy is based on the use of metallic nanostructures such as gold nanorods as efficient photoabsorbing agent for achieving photothermal ablation of tumors.
Background
According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the specialized cancer agency of the World Health Organization, an estimated 14.1 million new cancer cases and 8.2 million cancer-related deaths occurred in 2010, compared with 12.7 million and 7.6 million, respectively, in 2008 [1]. The major therapeutic approach for the treatment of a wide range of cancers remains chemotherapy. However, nonspecific delivery of chemotherapeutic agents leads to systematic side effects of normal tissues and limited efficacy in killing the tumor. Indeed, a disadvantage of many drug-based therapies particularly when administered orally or intravenously is that the compound does not localize to...
