“…For the latter case, nanoparticles containing high-Z elements (e.g. Au [4] , I, Bi [5] , and rare earth elements [6] ) which are able to interact with and absorb ionizing radiation could be utilized to enhance the efficacy of radiation therapy (RT) [7] , while those with high optical absorbance in the near infrared (NIR) region may convert photon energy into heat to induce photothermal therapy (PTT) of tumors [1d, 8] . The combination of different therapeutic strategies using multifunctional nanomedicine may offer synergistic effects in cancer treatment, so as to effectively treat tumors with decreased therapeutic doses and thus reduced side effects [9] .…”

“…Interestingly, NPs were designed to serve as radiosensitization enhancers. [14][15][16] Heavy metal (with high-Z elements such as Au, Pt, Bi, Ta, Gd, and Lu 17,18 ) NPs as promising computed tomography (CT) contrast agents (CAs) could be used in radiosensitizing therapy because of their high X-ray photon capture cross-section and compton scattering effect. When X-rays interact with high-Z NPs, Auger electrons and photoelectrons are emitted, with diameters ranging from nanometers to several micrometers.…”

“…It was considered that bismuth (Bi) is a biocompatible element with high atomic number (Z), which features with high X-ray attenuation for CT imaging and strong photoelectric absorbance of X-ray radiation for radiotherapy sensitization [150][151][152]. On this ground, Bi 2 S 3 nanoparticles-integrated MoS 2 nanosheets were recently fabricated for simultaneous RT sensitization and PTT enhancement [148].…”
