DNA-enabled rational design of fluorescence-Raman bimodal nanoprobes for cancer imaging and therapy
Abstract
Currently available Raman scanners are limited in speed to acquire images of clinically relevant sizes in cancer imaging. Here, the authors developed a DNA based design principle for Raman-Fluorescence bimodal nanoparticles and demonstrate real-time, high precision image-guided tumor resections and photothermal ablation of cancer.
