Intravital mesoscopic fluorescence molecular tomography allows non-invasive in vivo monitoring and quantification of breast cancer growth dynamics

Abstract

Mehmet S. Ozturk et al. present an intravital mesoscopic fluorescence tomography (IFT) technique that is capable of tracking fluorescently labeled tumor cells inside living mice over several months. It demonstrates a promising new method for studying tumor growth dynamics in a quantitative and longitudinal fashion in-vivo.
