MnSe@Bi 2 Se 3 core–shell nanostructures with highly integrated imaging and therapy functions are fabricated by a simple cation exchange method. Using those nanoparticles as a theranostic agent, a promise concept is further demonstrated to enhance conventional radiotherapy by: i) using X‐ray absorbing agents to locally concentrate radiation energy and ii) employing near‐infrared‐light‐triggered photothermal therapy to overcome hypoxia‐associated radioresistance.
