Figure 6.8 In vivo fluorescence imaging of human prostate cancer xenograft tumors. Mice were injected intravenously with GPI-functionalized QDs and observed for 4 h. (a) The prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive LNCaP tumor and PSMA-negative PC-3 tumor are indicated. Shown are representative images for animals in the prone position, (b) In situ (top row) and resected (bottom row) organs from a imaged at 4 h post-injection with color video and NIR fluorescence.
