We describe the synthesis, characterization, and use of hybrid nanoparticles with a superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-silica core and a gold nanoshell. These multifunctional nanoparticles, designated SPIO-Au nanoshells, displayed superparamagnetic characteristics and a significant absorbance in the near-infrared (NIR) region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In addition, they exhibited high transverse relaxivities, R-2, and a large R-2/R-1 ratio, and therefore, they could be imaged by MRI to obtain T-2-weighted images. Moreover, the SPIO-Au nanoshells showed efficient photothermal effects when exposed to NIR light. The use of SPIO-Au nanoshells, with their combination of unique magnetic and optical properties, should enhance the efficacy of nanoshell-mediated photothermal therapy by making it possible to direct more nanoparticles to tumors through the application of external magnetic field and by permitting real-time in vivo MRI imaging of the distribution of the nanoparticles before, during, and after photothermal therapy.
