Abstract:Purpose: To test in vivo, in a rabbit VX2 liver cancer model, a nanocomposite made with Fe3O4 core and TiO2 shell as a possible radiosensitization agent.
Methods: This study was approved by the institutional ACUC. Rabbits were implanted in liver with pairs of VX2 tumors distantly enough to allow irradiation of only one of the two tumors. The tumors were allowed to grow until clearly detectable by magnetic resonance imaging, followed by Computed Tomography (CT) simulation to identify and contour … Show more
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.
