Comparison of Folate Receptor Targeted Optical Contrast Agents for Intraoperative Molecular Imaging

Background. Intraoperative imaging can identify cancer cells in order to improve resection; thus fluorescent contrast agents have emerged. Our objective was to do a preclinical comparison of two fluorescent dyes, EC17 and OTL38, which both target folate receptor but have different fluorochromes. Ma...
