Cancer Cell Imaging and Photothermal Therapy in the Near-Infrared Region by Using Gold Nanorods

TL;DR: It is found that, after exposure to continuous red laser at 800 nm, malignant cells require about half the laser energy to be photothermally destroyed than the nonmalignant cells, so both efficient cancer cell diagnostics and selective photothermal therapy are realized at the same time.
