Tumor-growth in nude mouse xenograft models with and without treatment with gold nanoparticles prior to radiation therapy with 6 MV beam. Inside: Table showing tumor-growth delays comparing groups that received either goserelin-conjugated gold nanorods (gAuNR) and radiation therapy (RT) (
) or pegylated gold nanorods (pAuNR) and RT (
) with the groups that received only radiation for treatment (
) and no treatment (
).
