Figure 3.
A) Mean temperature change in treated tumors under 5 min irradiation with a laser of wavelength at 808 nm and power of 3 W/cm2, with error bars drawn with standard error B) Survival curves of tumor-bearing mice after photothermal therapy. The average survival times were 6.7 ± 3.2 days (for the “saline” group), 7.2 ± 4.0 days (for the “saline+laser” group, 11.3 ± 3.8 days (for the “NS+laser± group), and 15.8 ± 8.6 days (for the “NM+laser” group). Standard error bounds are drawn with dashed lines. The results are statistically significant (p < 0.05)
