Photoacoustic Imaging in Oncology: Translational Preclinical and Early Clinical Experience.
Photoacoustic imaging has evolved into a clinically translatable platform with the potential to complement existing imaging techniques for the management of cancer, including detection, characterization, prognosis, and treatment monitoring. In photoacoustic imaging, tissue is optically excited to produce ultrasonographic images that represent a spatial map of optical absorption of endogenous co...
متن کاملTodd Sasser Preclinical imaging : improving translational power in oncology
Initially using clinical-scale instrumentation, imaging provided a non-invasive means of assaying biological structure and function in vivo. The development of dedicated small animal imaging systems followed and, more recently, techniques in molecular imaging have been established to allow imaging modalities to be combined into multi-modal methods. Among these, the combination of positron emiss...
متن کاملPreclinical and Translational PET/MR Imaging.
Combined PET and MR imaging (PET/MR imaging) has progressed tremendously in recent years. The focus of current research has shifted from technologic challenges to the application of this new multimodal imaging technology in the areas of oncology, cardiology, neurology, and infectious diseases. This article reviews studies in preclinical and clinical translation. The common theme of these initia...
متن کاملPhotodynamic therapy with the phthalocyanine photosensitizer Pc 4: the case experience with preclinical mechanistic and early clinical-translational studies.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is emerging as a promising non-invasive treatment for cancers. PDT involves either local or systemic administration of a photosensitizing drug, which preferentially localizes within the tumor, followed by illumination of the involved organ with light, usually from a laser source. Here, we provide a selective overview of our experience with PDT at Case Western Reserve ...
متن کاملVisualization, imaging and new preclinical diagnostics in radiation oncology
Innovative strategies in cancer radiotherapy are stimulated by the growing knowledge on cellular and molecular tumor biology, tumor pathophysiology, and tumor microenvironment. In terms of tumor diagnostics and therapy monitoring, the reliable delineation of tumor boundaries and the assessment of tumor heterogeneity are increasingly complemented by the non-invasive characterization of functiona...
