Abstract

A new generation of photothermal theranostic agents is developed based on PEGylated WS2 nanosheets. Bimodal in vivo CT/photoacoustic imaging reveals strong tumor contrast after either intratumoral or intravenous injection of WS2 -PEG. In vivo photothermal treatment is then conducted in a mouse tumor...
