Additional studies are essential in order to understand the underlying processes of radiosensitization so as to use GNPs as a clinical therapeutic tool. In particular, the full
mechanisms mechanism underlying radiosensitization in radiotherapy still need to be investigated in a patient-like geometry. Of note, the efficacy of a treatment depends on the nanoparticles concentration and spatial distribution in the tumor cells, as well as on incident beam energy and delivered dose.
When metallic nanoparticles are localized in the tumor a greater fraction of the incident photon energy can be imparted to it without escalating the damage to the surrounding healthy tissues.
