Advances in the Mechanistic Understanding of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles’ Radiosensitizing Properties

Among the plethora of nanosystems used in the field of theranostics, iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) occupy a central place because of their biocompatibility and magnetic properties. In this study, we highlight the radiosensitizing effect of two IONPs formulations (namely 7 nm carboxylated IONPs an...
