Gold Nanoparticle Enhanced Proton Therapy: Monte Carlo Modeling of Reactive Species’ Distributions Around a Gold Nanoparticle and the Effects of Nanoparticle Proximity and Clustering
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are promising radiosensitizers with the potential to enhance radiotherapy. Experiments have shown GNP enhancement of proton therapy and indicated that chemical damage by reactive species plays a major role. Simulations of the distribution and yield of reactive species from...
