NCI: A nanoparticle composed of a metallic shell surrounding a semiconductor. When nanoshells reach a target cancer cell, they can be irradiated with near-infrared light or excited with a magnetic field; either of these exposures will cause the nanoshell to become hot, thereby killing the cancer cell. The metal spheres can absorb or scatter light at several wavelengths, making them well-suited for several clinical applications.,MSH: Nanometer range spherical cores of particular semiconductor compounds surrounded by an ultrathin metal shell that is commonly made of gold or silver. This configuration gives the nanoshells highly tunable optical properties. They have potential in biomedicine for diagnosis and therapy.
