Our observations indicate that DY-minigastrin-based NIRF optical imaging of CCK₂/gastrin receptor protein is feasible. Because of its widespread occurrence in different tumor types, endoscopic, laparoscopic, and tomographic receptor imaging could be accomplished in the near future.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
