Dual-targeted Contrast Agent for US Assessment of Tumor Angiogenesis in Vivo

Abstract
The results of our study suggest that dual-targeted contrast-enhanced US targeting both vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 and αvβ3 integrin improves in vivo visualization of tumor angio... PurposeTo develop and validate a dual-targeted ultrasonographic (US) imaging agent with microbubbles (MBs) that attaches to both vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and αv...
