Abstract
Multi-modal imaging guided photothermal therapy with single-walled carbon nanotubes affords effective destruction of primary tumors together with cancer cells in sentinel lymph nodes. This results in remarkably prolonged mouse survival compared to mice treated by elimination of only the primary tumor by either surgery or conventional photothermal therapy.
