“…Indeed, surgical specialists urgent need an effective tool to easily distinguish between tumor and normal tissue during surgery. Fluorescence technology has been paid unprecedented attention (Blum et al, 2007 ; Paulick and Bogyo, 2008 ; Asanuma et al, 2015 ; Ofori et al, 2015 ; Cheng et al, 2016 ; Gu et al, 2016a , b ; Hu et al, 2016 ; Chen et al, 2017 ; He et al, 2017 ; Liu et al, 2017a , b , c ; Wang et al, 2017a , 2018 ; Yin et al, 2017 ; Kuriki et al, 2018 ; Li et al, 2018b ; Llancalahuen et al, 2018 ; Miao et al, 2018 ; Sedgwick et al, 2018 ; Shang et al, 2018 ; Verwilst et al, 2018 ), especially for medical diagnosis and treatment system (Kim et al, 2017 ; Li et al, 2017b ; Verwilst et al, 2017 ), owing to efficient identification without destructive in vivo . Thus, it is of great medical significance to develop fluorescent probe that can assist clinician for imaging and resection of tumor.…”
