Quantitative Analysis of HER2 Receptor Expression In Vivo by Near-Infrared Optical Imaging

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression in breast cancers is associated with poor prognosis and resistance to therapy. Current techniques for estimating this important characteristic use ex vivo assays that require tissue biopsies. We suggest a novel noninvasive method to char...
