Using Nanotechnology and Nanoparticle Based Imaging to Produce Whole Body Images Showing Cancer Tumor Locations

Researchers have published a paper that describes a strategy for
small-animal optical imaging based on Raman spectroscopy and
Raman nanoparticles. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering nanoparticles
and single-wall carbon nanotubes were used to demonstrate
whole-body Raman imaging, nanoparticle pharmacokinetics,
multiplexing, and in vivo tumor targeting, using an imaging
system adapted for small-animal Raman imaging.
