Sensitive methods to detect the earliest forms of colorectal
a challenge despite the development of serum and
cyclic peptide motif, identified via differential phage converted
into a multimodal, high affinity imaging agent
colorectal cancer by nuclear imaging and fluorescence
cover features the putative structure of the imaging
ectopic colon tumors by the radiolabeled agent, and the fluorescent
endoscopic detection of orthotopic colon tumors
active agent. These results show proof-of-principle that
library-derived fluorescent probes can be rapidly developed
early detection of cancers by optical means. For details,
