Multifunctional polymer nanomedical platforms make simultaneous cancer‐targeted MRI or optical imaging together with efficient drug delivery in vitro possible. In addition, clusters of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles loaded in the polymer nanoparticles endow the magnetic guiding of the polymer particles, providing synergetic targeting efficiency.
