Preclinical studies on laser surgery
NANO-surgery for tumor diagnostics and therapy
Optoacoustic diagnosis of cancer cells
Photothermal + photoacoustic therapies
Upon systemic delivery, the functionalised gold
nanordods will target the cancer cells
selectively. Then they will be irradiated by a nearinfrared laser, to generate diagnosis, imaging and
therapy of cancer:
1) At low laser power, the photoacoustic effects will
result into the generation of ultrasound, which will
be used for the molecular diagnosis and
imaging of the cancer cells, even in small
metastases;
2) At higher laser power, the photothermal and
photoacoustic response will lead to the formation
of cavitation micro-bubbles, which will damage
the membranes and induce the apoptosis of the
cancer cells with high efficiency, selectivity and
non-invasiveness.
