Platinum nanoparticles increase the effectiveness of radiotherapy treatments in cancer

11/05/2026

A team led by scientists from the University of Zaragoza at INMA (CSIC–Unizar) is using “ultrasmall” Pt particles, measuring 2–3 nm, to multiply the effectiveness of radiotherapy. The study, published in the prestigious scientific journal Advanced Functional Materials, shows that these particles are...
