The lymphatic circulatory system has diverse functions in lipid absorption, fluid homeostasis,
and immune surveillance and responds dynamically when presented with infection …

Long gone is the time when tumors were thought to be insular masses of cells, residing
independently at specific sites in an organ. Now, researchers gradually realize that tumors …

Considerable efforts have been made to develop nanoparticle-based magnetic resonance
contrast agents (CAs) with high relaxivity. The prolonged rotational correlation time (τR) …

Achieving efficient activation of H 2 O 2 in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and further
improving the therapeutic efficiency is a great challenge in chemodynamic therapy against …

Tumor lymphangiogenesis promotes metastatic cancer spread to lymph nodes and beyond.
However, the potential remodeling and functionality of tumor-draining lymphatic vessels has …

The imaging of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs), the first defense against primary tumor
metastasis, has been considered as an important strategy for noninvasive tracking tumor …

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is very important for noninvasive lymphography.
However, the present MR contrast agents still cannot supply strong enough tissue contrast …

We have developed laser-activated perfluorocarbon nanodroplets containing copper sulfide
nanoparticles (CuS NPs) for contrast-enhanced ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging. As …

Visualization of the lymphatic system is clinically indispensable for the diagnosis and/or
treatment of lymphatic diseases. Although indocyanine green (ICG) lymphography becomes …

Metastases are responsible for 90% of human cancer deaths.[1] Most solid tumors
metastasize through the circulation system, and the sentinel lymph node (LN) is typically the …
