Dual Mode CT/Fluorescence Detectable Immunotargeted Nanoparticle Probes to Identify Self-Renewing Cancer Cells In Vivo

Statement of Purpose: The high mortality and poor prognosis for women diagnosed with ovarian cancer is mainly due to late diagnosis. Improved detection of primary tumors and recurring tumors after chemotherapy is, therefore, crucial to reduce ovarian cancer mortality and improve progression-free survival. However, current clinical screening and diagnostic imaging methods are limited by low …
