Quantification of Microvascular Response to Ionizing Radiation with Speckle Variance Optical Coherence Tomography

Cancer cells require access to blood vessels for oxygen and nutrients to enable growth and metastasis, making the tumour vasculature an attractive potential target for cancer therapies. Recent evidence suggests that the tumour vasculature plays a significant role in tumour response to high dose radi...
