摘要

Fluorescent molecules are important tools for visualizing proteins and molecular pathways and for distinguishing healthy from diseased tissue. Full-animal and clinical-scale fluorescence tomo-rngraphic imaging offers great promise for studying whole organs and disease development in vivo; however, the technique is hampered because light scatters when photons interact with biological tissue, which blurs the reconstructed image and obscures important features. To reduce the scattering effect, Mark Niedre et al. utilized the earliest-arriving, and therefore minimally scattered, photons emitted from a high-speedrnpulsed laser. This technique, called early photon tomography (EPT), showed not only the tumor but also biochemical changes in adjacent tissue, thus revealing the spread and progression of Lewis lung carcinoma in live mice. These findings were confirmed by histology and ex vivo fluorescence microscopy. The authors demonstrate that EPT can be used to generate 3D images of cancers and other diseases in living animals and suggest that the technique may be particularly useful in the liver and brain, where light scattering is more pronounced than in the lungs.
