Development of a new optical imaging modality for detection of fluorescence-enhanced disease /

A new optical imaging modality has been developed for the detection of early breast disease enhanced with a fluorescent contrast agent that excites and reemits at near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths. This new modality is based on exciting the fluorescent agent using an expanded, intensity-modulated NIR...
