Resumen:
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a potentially curative treatment modality that in recent years has experienced a growing interest and rapid technological advances due to its specific therapeutic efficacy and because it is a non-invasive technique. Nowadays, several nanomaterials were developed as photothermal agents including metallic and carbon-based nanoparticles, conducting polymers, different kinds of nanocomposites, among others. In this article, the most relevant applications in antibacterial and anticancer therapy of these photothermal nano-agents are reviewed.
