Immunotherapy is an effective tumor treatment strategy that has several advantages over conventional methods such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Studies show that multifunctional nanoprobes can achieve multi-mode image-guided multiple tumor treatment modes. The tumor cells killed by chemotherapies or phototherapies release antigens that trigger an immune response and augment the effects of tumor immunotherapy. Thus, combining immunotherapy and multifunctional nanoprobes can achieve early cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this review, we have summarized the current research on the applications of multifunctional nanoprobes in image-guided immunotherapy. In addition, image-guided synergistic chemotherapy/photothermal therapy/photodynamic therapy and immunotherapy have also been discussed. Furthermore, the application potential and clinical prospects of multifunctional nanoprobes in combination with immunotherapy have been assessed.
