Multimodality Imaging of Tumor Angiogenesis: Perfusion Modeling for Tumor Angiogenesis

When a tracer, such as Gd-doped or iodinated extracellular contrast, is introduced into the blood stream of a patient its transport through the vascular system, heart and lungs and eventual excretion via the kidneys is a well-established process [1,2]. At the level of the imaging voxel (for example, in the centre of a breast tumor) we can only speculate as to the precise nature of the tracer ki...

Molecular Imaging of Tumor Angiogenesis

Molecular imaging has recently been defined by the Society of Nuclear Medicine as ‘the visualization, characterization, and measurement of biological processes at the molecular and cellular levels in humans and other living systems’ (Mankoff 2007). It usually exploits specific labeled molecular probes, as well as intrinsic tissue characteristics as the source of image contrast, and uses a numbe...

Radionuclide imaging of tumor angiogenesis.

Angiogenesis is a multistep process regulated by pro- and antiangiogenic factors. In order to grow and metastasize, tumors need a constant supply of oxygen and nutrients. For growth beyond 1-2 mm in size, tumors are dependent on angiogenesis. Inhibition of angiogenesis is a new cancer treatment strategy that is now widely investigated clinically. Researchers have begun to search for objective m...

Dual-color fluorescence imaging of tumor-host interaction with green and red fluorescent proteins

Dual-color fluorescence imaging using red fluorescent protein (RFP)-expressing tumors transplanted in green fluorescent protein (GFP) expressing transgenic mice has been shown to be a powerful technology to study tumor-host interaction. Host animals include mice which express the GFP transgene in essentially all cells as well as animals in which the regulatory elements of the stem cell marker n...

Mouse for Imaging Human Tumor Angiogenesis Nestin-Linked Green Fluorescent Protein Transgenic Nude

We report here a novel transgenic nude mouse for the visualization of human tumor angiogenesis. We have recently shown that the neural stem cell marker nestin is expressed in hair follicle stem cells and blood vessel networks in the skin of C57/B6 transgenic mice with nestin regulatory element– driven green fluorescent protein (ND-GFP). Others have shown ND-GFP is expressed in the brain, pancre...
