| More Details: |
Nanoparticles have recently received attention in radiation therapy since they can act as radioenhancers. In this article, the authors report on the dose enhancement capabilities of a series of nanoparticles based on their metal core composition and beam characteristics, obtaining designing criteria for their optimal performance in specific radiotreatments. |
