Abstract
Over the last decade, plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) has received significant attention as the new therapeutic strategy for the cancer therapy due to unique characteristics of the gold-nanoparticles. The characterization of the spatiotemporal heating potential for the gold nanorods (GNR) through mimicking PPTT process on the various conditions can help more quantitative approaches to treatment planning. The purpose of this study was to clearly understand the optical-thermal interactions between the laser, GNRs, and bio-tissues, and provide the information in clinical applications to implement the concept of heterogeneity, which can enable the optimization of treatment parameters for superficial breast cancer treatment.
