Abstract
The term “cancer” covers more than a hundred
diseases that assign one trait: the abandoned growth of
abnormal cells that abolish healthy tissues and have the
potential to spread outside its site of origin. When a malignant
tumor originates in the breast, it is called breast cancer. Gold
nano particles display potential for both the imaging and cure
of breast cancer. From a logistical standpoint, most breast
tumors arise near the skin's surface, where they may possibly
be extracted and handled despite the NIR laser's minimal
tissue penetration. Photodynamic therapy is a fairly new
treatment option for both cancer and non-cancer diseases that
involves the activation of certain dyes with light in the
existence of molecular oxygen (photosensitizers) that the target
tissue has absorbed in a very selective manner. The
combination of hyperthermia and photoelectric dose
improvement of radiation therapy could be effectively treat
superficial positioned inflammatory breast
cancers , the novel work in photothermal therapy is
debated, as well as the combined effects of gold nanoparticles
and photothermal heating on breast cancer cells are studied in
details.
