Abstract: We have developed γFe2O3@Au core/shell type magnetic gold nanoflower-based theranostic nanoplatform integrated with ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering imaging, high-resolution photoacoustics imaging, real-time magnetic resonance imaging, as well as photothermal therapy capabilities.
