Description

There is great interest in near-infrared (NIR) nanomaterials for bioimaging and therapy applications due to their advantages of deeper penetration depth, low detection threshold concentration and better targeted performance over traditional imaging probes. Following an introduction, the first part of the book will look at different nanomaterial systems that can be used for NIR applications (Organic dye, lanthanide, carbon, quantum dots (QDs) and noble metal based nanomaterials) and the second part of the book will look at different biomedical applications (photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, drug delivery). Edited by a leading expert, this is the first book to give a holistic, up-to-date account of NIR nanomaterials for biomedical applications.
