In X-ray Drug Delivery System, anticancer drugs containing Pt, such as cisplatin and dachplatin, and Au colloid contrast agent are surrounded by polymers (micelle, PEG (polyethylene glycol), etc.). Ttheir sizes are controlled to be 20-100 nm. Since holes of capillary to organ are as large as 100 nm...
