Assessing Breast Cancer Margins Ex Vivo Using Aqueous Quantum-Dot-Molecular Probes
Figure 5
Animal tumor imaging. Top panel: fluorescent imaging using IVIS system. Bottom panel: bright field images of the same tumor. Two orientations of the tumor were imaged: (a) ventral side; (b) dorsal side. (c) The integrated fluorescent intensity was quantified using IVIS software for 3 regions of the tumor. Dash-line indicates the cut-off between normal and cancer areas.
