Nanoscale ultrasound-switchable FRET based liposomes for near-infrared fluorescence imaging in optically turbid media

A new approach to fluorescence imaging in optically turbid media centered on the use of nanoscale ultrasound-switchable FRET based liposome contrast agents is reported. Liposomes containing lipophilic carbocyanine dyes as FRET pairs with emission wavelengths located in the near-infrared window were...
