Real-time molecular optical micro-imaging of EGFR mutations using a fluorescent erlotinib based tracer

Abstract Background EGFR mutations are routinely explored in lung adenocarcinoma by sequencing tumoral DNA. The aim of this study was to evaluate a fluorescent-labelled erlotinib based theranostic agent for the molecular imaging of mutated EGFR tumours in vitro and ex vivo using a mice xenograft mod...
