The In Vivo Optical Imaging Laboratory has made several significant advances both at the micro- and macroscopic levels.
- the whole-animal optical imaging system is now fully functional and has the ability to image live animals throughout the entire spectrum from visible to the near-infrared light.
- the optical microscopy laboratory has continued to explore individual molecular events during formation of liver metastases from human colon cancer, and has documented the sequence of events leading to onset of angiogenesis in these liver tumors. A new and very exciting focus has been the use of conventional ultrasound to enhance delivery of drugs into liver metastases.
