Treating Cancer With Nanoparticles & Photothermal Ablation

by Chelsea Tripp, DVM, MS, DACVIM (Oncology)
 

Oncology experts are harnessing the power of gold nanoparticles in combination with infrared laser for the ablation of certain types of cancer tumors with less pain, shorter recovery times, and superior results compared with commonly used treatments.

Key talking points included in the webinar:

  • Results of clinical trials of the treatment of canine mast cell tumors using a combined laser and nanoshell therapy procedure that has the ability to destroy solid tumors without damaging adjacent healthy tissue.
  • The mechanisms of action for the photothermal ablation for the treatment of cutaneous neoplasms.
  • Patient-centric viability for the use of nanomedicine for selective thermal ablation of solid tumors.
  •
