Résumé
Gold nanoparticles are a potential method for enhancing radiation therapy, causing extra damage to tumors when irradiated through the Auger effect. One of the major obstacles to using gold nanoparticles in human trials is the relatively large amount of gold required. This paper details an experiment where a relatively small amount of gold (200
