D–A Type NIR‐II Organic Molecules: Strategies for the Enhancement Fluorescence Brightness and Applications in NIR‐II Fluorescence Imaging‐Navigated Photothermal Therapy (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 21/2022)

Photothermal Therapy In article 2201158 by Peng Wang, Pengfei Sun, Min Ji, and co-workers, some approaches to the development and design strategies of D–A type small molecules and conjugated polymers for the enhancement of fluorescence brightness are systemically introduced. Meanwhile, some applications of photothermal therpy (PTT) and PTT-based combination therapies assisted by NIR-II FI-based single or multiimaging technologies are classified and represented in detail. Finally, the current issues and challenges of NIR-II organic molecules in NIR-II FI-navigated PTT are summarized and discussed.
