Abstract

A biodegradable nanotheranostic agent has been successfully constructed for fluorescence/magnetic resonance dual-modal imaging guided photothermal therapy by loading indocyanine green (ICG) molecules into 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy (polyethylene glycol)] (DSPE-PEG) coated superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles (NPs). It was proved that the obtained SPIO
