Polymer dots (Pdots) have been applied to imaging lymph nodes (LNs) and lymphatic
vessels (LVs) in living mice and rats. However, the mechanism of absorption, distribution …

Lymphatic system plays a vital role in facilitating tumor metastasis in the early stage. It is
urgent to understand the structure, development and function of the lymphatics via the high …

Noninvasive, repeated, and high-resolution imaging of the lymphatic vascular system plays
an important role in studying the development and function of lymphatics. However …

Background The sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was developed as a new modality in
the surgical diagnosis of lymph node metastases. Dye and radioisotope are major tracers for …

We describe the in vivo fluorescence imaging method of novel threadlike tissues (Bonghan
ducts) inside the lymphatic vessels of rats with fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles. This …

Metastasis to regional lymph nodes is a significant prognostic indicator for cancer
progression. There is a great demand for rapid and accurate diagnosis of metastasis to the …

Advancements in lymphography technology are essential for comprehensive investigation of
the lymphatic system and its function. Here, a shortwave infrared (SWIR) luminescence …

Nanomaterials have recently been investigated extensively for a wide variety of biological
applications, including drug delivery, bioimaging, and regenerative medicine. However, they …

In vivo cell tracking can provide information on cell migration and accumulation in the
organs. Here, both folate and amino modified polymer dots were synthesized and screened …

Lymphatic system is identified the second vascular system after the blood circulation in
mammalian species, however the research on lymphatic system has long been hampered …
