In addition, the IR-808-sensitized core-shell NaGdF 4 :Yb,Er@(NaGdF 4 :Nd,Yb)
nanoparticles carrying Ce6 and MC540 as PSs, which were mentioned in the
previous section, also showed the upconversion luminescence, MRI (magnetic
resonance imaging) and CT imaging properties under a single 808 nm light excitation, revealing its potential for imaging-guided PDT [115].

NIR theragnosis and fluorescence tracking without therapy capacity. (b) Structure of the components used for building the NH consisting of N-aminobacterio-purpurinimide (PP),
1,8-naphthalimide (NI) and UCNP (NaYF 4 :Yb, Er, Tm); absorption (dashed lines) and emission
(thick lines) spectra of the components (PP, NI and UCNP). Reprinted with permission from
