Temperature-feedback upconversion nanocomposite for accurate photothermal therapy at facile temperature
In photothermal therapy for cancer treatment, hyperthermic effects can damage healthy tissues and inhibit therapeutic efficacy. Here, the authors use core-shell lanthanide-based nanoparticles to monitor microscopic temperatures and to ablate cancer tissue at low temperatures.
