Abstract Background Neuroblastoma a frequently occurring solid tumour in children remains a therapeutic challenge as existing imaging tools are inadequate for proper and accurate diagnosis resulting in treatment failures. Nanoparticles have recently been introduced to the field of cancer research and promise remarkable improvements in diagnostics targeting and drug delivery. Among these nanoparticles quantum dots QDs are highly appealing due to their manipulatable surfaces yielding multifunctional QDs applicable in different biological models. The biocompatibility of these .
