relaxivity over gadopentetic acid (Gd-DTPA) and have better X-ray absorption ability than rose bengal alone. These excellent properties of the GRDs are verified both in vitro and in vivo. The combination of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and radiation therapy (RT) more significantly inhibits tumor growth than monotherapies (i.e., PDT or RT). This work offers a new route to designing and synthesizing Gd-based nanotheranostics for image-guided cancer therapy.
