CsxWO3@NBs as a Multi-Image Guided Photothermal/Photodynamic Combination Therapy Platform for the Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Effective cancer treatment relies on the precise deployment of clinical imaging techniques to accurately treat tumors. One highly representative technology among these is multi-imaging guided phototherapy. This work introduces a new and innovative theranostic drug that combines near-infrared (NIR) irradiation-induced photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) to treat malignancies. Moreover, it can be utilized as a contrasting substance for X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to aid in the administration of therapy.
