Photothermal therapy, which uses light to heat and destroy cancer cells, is being significantly improved with the help of nanotechnology. Nanoparticles can be programmed to accumulate in breast cancer cells and convert light into heat with high efficiency, effectively killing the cancer cells without harming surrounding healthy tissues. This minimally invasive approach holds great promise as an alternative or adjunct to traditional therapies.
