Abstract
Detection of biomarkers to diagnose, treat, and predict the efficacy of cancer therapies is a major clinical challenge. Currently, biomarkers such as PD-L1 are commonly detected from biopsies, but this approach does not take into account the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of their expression in tumors. A solution consists in conjugating monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting these biomarkers with multimodal imaging probes. In this study, a bimodal [111In]-DOTA-aza-BODIPY probe emitting in the near-infrared (NIR) was grafted onto mAbs targeting murine or human PD-L1 either in a site-specific or random manner. In vitro, these bimodal mAbs showed a good stability and affinity for PD-L1. In vivo, they targeted specifically PD-L1 and were detected by both fluorescence and SPECT imaging. A significant benefit of site-specific conjugation on glycans was observed compared to random conjugation on lysine. The potential of this bimodal agent was also highlighted, thanks to a proof of concept of fluorescence-guided surgery in a human PD-L1+ tumor model.

Abstract
As primary sites of tumor metastasis, sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) require a highly biocompatible theranostic platform for precise localization and treatment to inhibit tumor metastasis. Herein, indocyanine green-human serum albumin (ICG-HSA) nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated by ICG-induced self-assembly and radiolabeled with technetuim-99 m (99mTc). The fabricated NPs were composed of hospital-available drugs and isotopes, making them highly biocompatible for in vivo applications. In a mouse model of SLN metastasis, the prepared NPs exhibited excellent capacity for preoperative planning by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging-enabled SLN localization, near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging-enabled intraoperative real-time monitoring, and SLN photothermal treatment. Photothermal treatment with SLN enhanced the inhibition of lung metastasis and significantly increased the survival time of mice. The prepared NPs were highly biocompatible and exhibited efficient theranostic properties for inhibiting cancer metastasis, making them promising candidates for clinical translation.

Abstract
Cancer imaging is a rapidly evolving field due to the discovery of novel molecular targets and the availability of corresponding techniques to detect them with high precision, accuracy, and sensitivity. Nuclear medicine is the most widely used molecular imaging modality and has a growing toolkit of clinically used radiopharmaceuticals that enable whole-body tumor visualization, staging, and treatment monitoring for a variety of tumors in a non-invasive manner. The need for similar imaging capabilities in the operating room has led to the emergence of fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) as a powerful technique that gives surgeons unprecedented ability to distinguish tumors from healthy tissues. While a variety of strategies have been used to develop contrast agents for FGS, the use of radiopharmaceuticals as models brings exceptional translational potential and has increasingly been explored. Here, we review strategies used to convert clinically used radiopharmaceuticals into fluorescent and multimodal counterparts. Unique preclinical and clinical capabilities stemming from radiopharmaceutical-based agent design are also discussed to illustrate the advantages of this approach.

Multimodality PET and Near-Infrared Fluorescence Intraoperative Imaging of CEA-Positive Colorectal Cancer. Mol Imaging Biol 2023:10.1007/s11307-023-01831-8.

Abstract
PURPOSE Molecular imaging is a major diagnostic component for cancer management, enabling detection, staging of disease, targeting therapy, and monitoring the therapeutic response. The coordination of multimodality imaging techniques further enhances tumor localization. The development of a single agent for real-time non-invasive targeted positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and fluorescence guided surgery (FGS) will provide the next generation tool in the surgical management of cancer. PROCEDURES The humanized anti-CEA M5A-IR800 "sidewinder" (M5A-IR800-SW) antibody-dye conjugate was designed with a NIR 800 nm dye incorporated into a PEGylated linker and conjugated with the metal chelate p-SCN-Bn-deferoxamine (DFO) for zirconium-89 PET imaging (89Zr, half-life 78.4 h). The dual-labeled 89Zr-DFO-M5A-SW-IR800 was evaluated for near infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging, PET/MRI imaging, terminal tissue biodistribution, and blood clearance in a human colorectal cancer LS174T xenograft mouse model. RESULTS The 89Zr-DFO-M5A-SW-IR800 NIR fluorescence imaging showed high tumor targeting with normal liver uptake. Serial PET/MRI imaging was performed at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h and showed tumor localization visible at 24 h that persisted throughout the experiment. However, the PET scans showed higher activity for the liver than the tumor, compared to the NIR fluorescence imaging. This difference is an important finding as it quantifies the expected difference due to the sensitivity and depth of penetration between the 2 modalities. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the potential of a pegylated anti-CEA M5A-IR800-Sidewinder for NIR fluorescence/PET/MR multimodality imaging for intraoperative fluorescence guided surgery.

J Med Imaging (Bellingham) 2023; 10:033505. [PMID: 37351312 PMCID: PMC10284170 DOI: 10.1117/1.jmi.10.3.033505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Minimally invasive surgery has advantages in terms of quality of life and patient outcomes. Recently, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence guided surgery has widely used for preclinical and clinical trials. However, NIR fluorescence has a maximum penetration capability of 10 mm. Radiographic imaging can be a solution to overcome the depth issue of NIR fluorescence. For this reason, the performance of the multimodal imaging system, which integrates annihilation gamma (511 keV) rays, NIR fluorescence, and color images, was evaluated. Approach The multimodal imaging system consisted of a laparoscopic module, containing an internal detector for annihilation gamma events and cameras for optical imaging, and a flat module for coincidence detection with the internal detector. The acquired images were integrated by an algorithm with post image processing and registration. To evaluate the performance of the proposed multimodal imaging system, the images of a resolution target, a square bar target filled with a fluorescence dye, and a sodium-22 point source were analyzed. A preclinical test for axillary sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy with a rat model was conducted. Results The spatial resolution of color images was equivalent to 4 lp/mm. The modulation transfer function of NIR fluorescence at 1 lp/mm was 0.83. The 511 keV gamma sensitivity and spatial resolution of the point source were 0.54 cps/kBq and 2.1 mm, respectively. The image of 511 keV gamma rays showed almost the same intensity regardless of the thickness of the tissue phantom. In the preclinical test, an integrated image of the SLN sample of the rat model was obtained with the proposed multimodal imaging system. Conclusions With the proposed laparoscopic system, a merged image of the sample was obtained with the rat model. The annihilation gamma rays showed penetration capability with the tissue-mimicking phantom superior to that of NIR fluorescence.

A Remarkable Difference in Pharmacokinetics of Fluorinated Versus Iodinated Photosensitizers Derived from Chlorophyll-a and a Direct Correlation between the Tumor Uptake and Anti-Cancer Activity. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28093782.

Abstract
To investigate and compare the pharmacokinetic profile and anti-cancer activity of fluorinated and iodinated photosensitizers (PSs), the 3-(1'-(o-fluorobenzyloxy)ethyl pyropheophorbide and the corresponding meta-(m-) and para (p-) fluorinated analogs (methyl esters and carboxylic acids) were synthesized. Replacing iodine with fluorine in PSs did not make any significant difference in fluorescence and singlet oxygen (a key cytotoxic agent) production. The nature of the delivery vehicle and tumor types showed a significant difference in uptake and long-term cure by photodynamic therapy (PDT), especially in the iodinated PS. An unexpected difference in the pharmacokinetic profiles of fluorinated vs. iodinated PSs was observed. At the same imaging parameters, the fluorinated PSs showed maximal tumor uptake at 2 h post injection of the PS, whereas the iodinated PS gave the highest uptake at 24 h post injection. Among all isomers, the m-fluoro PS showed the best in vivo anti-cancer activity in mice bearing U87 (brain) or bladder (UMUC3) tumors. A direct correlation between the tumor uptake and PDT efficacy was observed. The higher tumor uptake of m-fluoro PS at two hours post injection provides a solid rationale for developing the corresponding 18F-agent (half-life 110 min only) for positron imaging tomography (PET) of those cancers (e.g., bladder, prostate, kidney, pancreas, and brain) where 18F-FDG-PET shows limitations.

Abstract
A person suspected of having Alzheimer's disease (AD) is clinically diagnosed for the presence of principal biomarkers, especially misfolded amyloid-beta (Aβ) and tau proteins in the brain regions. Existing radiotracer diagnostic tools, such as PET imaging, are expensive and have limited availability for primary patient screening and pre-clinical animal studies. To change the status quo, small-molecular near-infrared (NIR) probes have been rapidly developed, which may serve as an inexpensive, handy imaging tool to comprehend the dynamics of pathogenic progression in AD and assess therapeutic efficacy in vivo. This Perspective summarizes the biochemistry of Aβ and tau proteins and then focuses on structurally diverse NIR probes with coverages of their spectroscopic properties, binding affinity toward Aβ and tau species, and theranostic effectiveness. With the summarized information and perspective discussions, we hope that this paper may serve as a guiding tool for designing novel in vivo imaging fluoroprobes with theranostic capabilities in the future.

Abstract
Molecular imaging is a biomedical research discipline that has quickly emerged to afford the observation, characterization, monitoring, and quantification of biomarkers and biological processes in living organism. It covers a large array of imaging techniques, each of which provides anatomical, functional, or metabolic information. Multimodality, as the combination of two or more of these techniques, has proven to be one of the best options to boost their individual properties, hence offering unprecedented tools for human health. In this review, we will focus on the combination of positron emission tomography and fluorescence imaging from the specific perspective of the chemical synthesis of dual imaging agents. Based on a detailed analysis of the literature, this review aims at giving a comprehensive overview of the chemical strategies implemented to build adequate imaging tools considering radiohalogens and radiometals as positron emitters, fluorescent dyes mostly emitting in the NIR window and all types of targeting vectors.

Abstract
This review presents data on dual conjugates of therapeutic and diagnostic action for targeted delivery to prostate cancer cells. The works of the last ten years on this topic were analyzed. The mail attention focuses on low-molecular-weight conjugates directed to the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA); the comparison of high and low molecular weight PSMA-targeted conjugates was made. The considered conjugates were divided in the review into two main classes: diagnostic bimodal conjugates (which are containing two fragments for different types of diagnostics), theranostic conjugates (containing both therapeutic and diagnostic agents); also bimodal high molecular weight therapeutic conjugates containing two therapeutic agents are briefly discussed. The data of in vitro and in vivo studies for PSMA-targeted double conjugates available by the beginning of 2021 have been analyzed.

Abstract
A water-soluble fluorescent aza-BODIPY platform (Wazaby) was prepared and functionalized by a polyazamacrocycle agent and a bioconjugable arm. The resulting fluorescent derivative was characterized and bioconjugated onto a trastuzumab monoclonal antibody as a vector. After bioconjugation, the imaging agent appeared to be stable in serum (>72 h at 37 °C) and specifically labeled HER-2-positive breast tumors slices. The bioconjugate was radiolabeled with [111In] indium and studied in vivo. The developed monomolecular multimodal imaging probe (MOMIP) is water-soluble and chemically and photochemically stable, emits in the near infrared (NIR) region (734 nm in aqueous media), and displays a good quantum yield of fluorescence (around 15%). Single-photon emission-computed tomography and fluorescence imaging have been performed in nude mice bearing HER2-overexpressing HCC1954 human breast cancer xenografts and have evidenced the good tumor targeting of the [111In] In bimodal agent. Finally, the proof of concept of using it as a new tool for fluorescence-guided surgery has been shown.

Abstract
A practical, modular synthesis of targeted molecular imaging agents (TMIAs) containing near-infrared dyes for optical molecular imaging (OMI) or chelated metals for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and single-photon emission correlation tomography (SPECT) or positron emission tomography (PET) has been developed. In the method, imaging modules are formed early in the synthesis by attaching imaging agents to the side chain of protected lysines. These modules may be assembled to provide a given set of single- or dual-modal imaging agents, which may be conjugated in the last steps of the synthesis under mild conditions to linkers and targeting groups. A key discovery was the ability of a metal such as gadolinium, useful in MRI, to serve as a protecting group for the chelator, 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA). It was further discovered that two lanthanide metals, La and Ce, can double as protecting groups and placeholder metals, which may be transmetalated under mild conditions by metals used for PET in the final step. The modular method enabled the synthesis of discrete targeted probes with two of the same or different dyes, two same or different metals, or mixtures of dyes and metals. The approach was exemplified by the synthesis of single- or dual-modal imaging modules for MRI-OMI, PET-OMI, and PET-MRI, followed by conjugation to the integrin-seeking peptide, c(RGDyK). For Gd modules, their efficacy for MRI was verified by measuring the NMR spin-lattice relaxivity. To validate functional imaging of TMIAs, dual-modal agents containing Cy5.5 were shown to target A549 cancer cells by confocal fluorescence microscopy.

Abstract
Increased energy metabolism followed by enhanced glucose consumption is a hallmark of cancer. Most cancer cells show overexpression of facilitated hexose transporter GLUT1, including breast cancer. GLUT1 is the main transporter for 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-d-glucose (2-[18F]FDG), the gold standard of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in oncology. The present study's goal was to develop novel glucose-based dual imaging probes for their use in tandem PET and fluorescence (Fl) imaging. A glucosamine scaffold tagged with a fluorophore and an 18F-label should confer selectivity to GLUT1. Out of five different compounds, 2-deoxy-2-((7-sulfonylfluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl)amino)-d-glucose (2-FBDG) possessed favorable fluorescent properties and a similar potency as 2-deoxy-2-((7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl)amino)-d-glucose (2-NBDG) in competing for GLUT1 transport against 2-[18F]FDG in breast cancer cells. Radiolabeling with 18F was achieved through the synthesis of prosthetic group 7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole-4-sulfonyl [18F]fluoride ([18F]FBDF) followed by the reaction with glucosamine. The radiotracer was finally analyzed in vivo in a breast cancer xenograft model and compared to 2-[18F]FDG. Despite favourable in vitro fluorescence imaging properties, 2-[18F]FBDG was found to lack metabolic stability in vivo, resulting in radiodefluorination. Glucose-based 2-[18F]FBDG represents a novel dual-probe for GLUT1 imaging using FI and PET with the potential for further structural optimization for improved metabolic stability in vivo.

Abstract
Early cancer detection and perfect understanding of the disease are imperative toward efficient treatments. It is straightforward that, for choosing a specific cancer treatment methodology, diagnostic agents undertake a critical role. Imaging is an extremely intriguing tool since it assumes a follow up to treatments to survey the accomplishment of the treatment and to recognize any conceivable repeating injuries. It also permits analysis of the disease, as well as to pursue treatment and monitor the possible changes that happen on the tumor. Likewise, it allows screening the adequacy of treatment and visualizing the state of the tumor. Additionally, when the treatment is finished, observing the patient is imperative to evaluate the treatment methodology and adjust the treatment if necessary. The goal of this review is to present an overview of conjugated photosensitizers for imaging and therapy.

Hybrid Multimodal Imaging Synthons for Chemoselective and Efficient Biomolecule Modification with Chelator and Near-Infrared Fluorescent Cyanine Dye. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2020; 13:ph13090250.

Abstract
The development of hybrid multimodal imaging synthons (MIS), carrying in addition to a chelator for radiometal labeling also a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent cyanine dye was the aim of this work. The MIS should be introducible into biomolecules of choice via an efficient and chemoselective click chemistry reaction. After chemical optimization, a successful synthetic strategy towards such hybrid MIS was developed, based on solid phase-based synthesis techniques and applying different near-infrared fluorescent cyanine dyes. The developed hybrid agents were shown to be easily introducible into a model homobivalent peptidic gastrin-releasing peptide receptor- (GRPR)-specific carrier without forming any side products and the MIS as well as their bioconjugates were radiolabeled with the positron-emitter 68Ga3+. The hybrid multimodal agents were characterized with regard to their logDs, GRPR target affinities and photophysical characteristics. It could be shown that the properties of the bioconjugates were not per se affected by the introduction of the MIS but that the cyanine dye used and specifically the number of comprised negative charges per dye molecule can have a considerable influence on target receptor binding. Thus, the molecular toolbox described here enables the synthesis of tailored hybrid multimodal imaging synthons for biomolecule modification, meeting the specific need and envisioned application of the combined imaging agent.

Abstract
Efforts at altering the dismal prognosis of pediatric midline gliomas focus on direct delivery strategies like convection-enhanced delivery (CED), where a cannula is implanted into tumor. Successful CED treatments require confirmation of tumor coverage, dosimetry, and longitudinal in vivo pharmacokinetic monitoring. These properties would be best determined clinically with image-guided dosimetry using theranostic agents. In this study, we combine CED with novel, molecular-grade positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and show how PETobinostat, a novel PET-imageable HDAC inhibitor, is effective against DIPG models. PET data reveal that CED has significant mouse-to-mouse variability; imaging is used to modulate CED infusions to maximize tumor saturation. The use of PET-guided CED results in survival prolongation in mouse models; imaging shows the need of CED to achieve high brain concentrations. This work demonstrates how personalized image-guided drug delivery may be useful in potentiating CED-based treatment algorithms and supports a foundation for clinical translation of PETobinostat.

Abstract
Rare earth-doped nanoparticles have been widely used in disease diagnosis, drug delivery, tumor therapy, and bioimaging. Among various bioimaging methods, the fluorescence imaging technology based on the rare earth-doped nanoparticles can visually display the cell activity and lesion evolution in living animals, which is a powerful tool in biological technology and has being widely applied in medical and biological fields. Especially in the band of near infrared (700–1700 nm), the emissions show the characteristics of deep penetration due to low absorption, low photon scattering, and low autofluorescence interference. Furthermore, the rare earth-doped nanoparticles can be endowed with the water solubility, biocompatibility, drug-loading ability, and the targeting ability for different tumors by surface functionalization. This confirms its potential in the cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this review, we summarized the recent progress in the application of rare earth-doped nanoparticles in the field of bioimaging and tumor treatment. The luminescent mechanism, properties, and structure design were also discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Knowing the precise flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is important in the management of multiple neurological diseases. Technology for non-invasively quantifying CSF flow would allow for precise localization of injury and assist in evaluating the viability of certain devices placed in the central nervous system (CNS). METHODS We describe a near-infrared fluorescent dye for accurately monitoring CSF flow by positron emission tomography (PET) and fluorescence. IR-783, a commercially available near-infrared dye, was chemically modified and radiolabeled with fluorine-18 to give [18F]-IR783-AMBF3. [18F]-IR783-AMBF3 was intrathecally injected into the rat models with normal and aberrant CSF flow and evaluated by the fluorescence and PET/MRI or PET/CT imaging modes. RESULTS IR783-AMBF3 was clearly distributed in CSF-containing volumes by PET and fluorescence. We compared IR783-AMBF3 (fluorescent at 778/793 nm, ex/em) to a shorter-wavelength, fluorescein equivalent (fluorescent at 495/511 nm, ex/em). IR783-AMBF3 was superior for its ability to image through blood (hemorrhage) and for imaging CSF-flow, through-skin, in subdural-run lumboperitoneal shunts. IR783-AMBF3 was safe under the tested dosage both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION The superior imaging properties of IR783-AMBF3 could lead to enhanced accuracy in the treatment of patients and would assist surgeons in non-invasively diagnosing diseases of the CNS.

Abstract
Absolute measurements of biodistribution are essential for understanding and optimizing the function of nanomaterials for in vivo diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Biodistribution analysis by optical imaging is desirable due to its low cost, wide accessibility, and high-throughput nature, but it is substantially less accurate than isotopic and chemical techniques. In this work, we developed multimodal probes for optical and nuclear imaging to analyze the quantitative limits of optical contrast in the red and near-infrared spectra for polysaccharide nanocarriers targeting macrophage cells. Probes incorporating three zwitterionic fluorophores together with radioactive copper distributed diffusely to optically dissimilar tissues that were either white (visceral adipose tissue) or dark red (liver and spleen) in obese rodents. We used in vivo positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging, in vivo hyperspectral tomographic fluorescence imaging, and ex vivo optical and isotopic analyses to determine correlations between optical and nuclear signals. PET imaging strongly correlated with standardized ex vivo methods for all tissue types, whereas no fluorescence signals exhibited substantial accuracy in quantification or localization in vivo. Optical imaging of resected tissues was most accurate in the 700 nm wavelength window, but only in white tissues. This work suggests that fluorescence can be used to measure diffuse probe distribution in white tissues over time or across animals, but not red tissues and not deep in the body. This work also highlights the importance of choosing validated experimental protocols and describes how optical measurements are impacted by fluorophore class and spectral properties, tissue properties, and imaging workflow.

Abstract
Positron emission tomography (PET) molecular imaging is a powerful tool for interrogating physiological and biochemical processes to understand the biology of disease and advance therapeutic developments. Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) optical imaging has become increasingly popular for intraoperative staging to enable cellular resolution imaging of tumor margins during surgical resection. In addition, engineered antibody fragments have emerged as promising molecular imaging agents given their exquisite target selectivity, rapid systemic clearance and site-selective chemical modification. We report a tri-functional platform for construction of a modular antibody fragment that can rapidly be labeled with radionuclides or fluorophores for PET or NIRF molecular imaging of prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA). To provide a universal approach towards the targeted delivery of PET and optical imaging agents, we have developed a tri-functional platform (TFP) for the facile construction of modular, target-specific tracers.![]()

Abstract
Medical diagnostics aims at specific localization of molecular targets as well as detection of abnormalities associated with numerous diseases. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) represent an approach of creating a synthetic material exhibiting selective recognition properties toward the desired template. The fabricated target-specific MIPs are usually well reproducible, economically efficient, and stable under critical conditions as compared to routinely used biorecognition elements such as fluorescent proteins, antibodies, enzymes, or aptamers and can even be created to those targets for which no antibodies are available. In this review, we summarize the methods of polymer fabrication. Further, we provide key for selection of the core material with imaging function depending on the imaging modality used. Finally, MIP-based imaging applications are highlighted and presented in a comprehensive form from different aspects. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this review, we summarize the methods of polymer fabrication. Key applications of Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) in imaging are highlighted and discussed with regard to the selection of the core material for imaging as well as commonly used imaging targets. MIPs represent an approach of creating a synthetic material exhibiting selective recognition properties toward the desired template.

Abstract
The small molecule fluorescein is commonly used to guide the repair of cerebral spinal fluid leaks (CSFLs) in the clinic. We modified fluorescein so that it is also visible by positron emission tomography (PET). This probe was used to quantitatively track the fast distribution of small molecules in the CSF of rats. We tested this probe in models relevant to the clinical diagnosis and treatment of central nervous system (CNS) diseases that affect CSF flow. In this study, fluorescein was radiolabeled with fluorine-18 to produce Fc-AMBF3. [18/19F]-Fc-AMBF3 was introduced at trace quantities (13.2 nmols, 100 μCi) intrathecally (between L5 and L6) in rats to observe the dynamic distribution and clearance of small molecules in the CSF by both [18F]-PET and fluorescence (FL) imaging. Murine models were used to demonstrate the following utilities of Fc-AMBF3: (1) utility in monitoring the spontaneous CSFL repair of a compression fracture of the cribriform plate and (2) utility in quantifying CSF flow velocity during neurosurgical lumboperitoneal shunt placement. Fc-AMBF3 clearly delineated CSF-containing volumes based on noninvasive PET imaging and in ex vivo FL histology. In vivo morbidity (n = 16 rats, <2.7 mg/kg, 77 times the PET dose) was not observed. The clearance of the contrast agent from the CNS was rapid and quantitative (t1/2 = 33.8 ± 0.6 min by FL and t1/2 = 26.0 ± 0.5 min by PET). Fc-AMBF3 was cleared from the CSF through the vasculature and/or lymphatic system that supplies the cribriform plate and the temporal bone. Fc-AMBF3 can be used to diagnose CSFLs, image CSFL repair, and determine the CSF flow velocity in the CNS or through lumboperitoneal shunts by PET/FL imaging. In conclusion, Fc-AMBF3 PET imaging has been demonstrated to safely and dynamically quantitate CSF flow, diagnose fistulas associated with the CSF space, and approximate the clearance of small molecules in the CSF.

Abstract
Fluorescence spectroscopy is usually applied in physics, chemistry and related sciences. However, in recent years we can observe a growing interest in fluorescence spectroscopy for medical diagnostics. Currently, it is beginning to be used in the monitoring of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) activity. As the knowledge on RA increases, growing importance is being placed on the evaluation of synovitis. Today, it is difficult to imagine contemporary rheumatology without ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, it turns out that these are not the only methods allowing one to visualise subclinical lesions, particularly synovitis. Fluorescence optical imaging (FOI) is also useful for the evaluation of inflammatory lesions in the joints. In the future, FOI may become competitive with "traditional" imaging studies. It is characterised by low cost, short duration and similar sensitivity to US.

Abstract
Objective To develop a bioluminescence-labelled bacterial infection model to monitor the colonization and clearance process of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in the lungs of mice following influenza A virus/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) strain (IAV/PR8) infection. Methods BALB/c mice were administered IAV/PR8 or 0.01 M phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; pH 7.4) intranasally 4 days prior to intranasal administration of 1 × 107 colony-forming units (CFU) of E. coli O157:H7-lux. Whole-body bioluminescent signals were monitored at 10 min, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h and 24 h post-bacterial infection. Lung bioluminescent signals and bacterial load (CFU/g) were monitored at 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h and 24 h post-bacterial infection. Results Prior IAV/PR8 infection of mice resulted in a higher level of bacterial colonization and a lower rate of bacterial clearance from the lungs compared with mice treated with PBS. There were also consistent findings between the bioluminescence imaging and the CFU measurements in terms of identifying bacterial colonization and monitoring the clearance dynamics of E. coli O157:H7-lux in mouse lungs. Conclusion This novel bioluminescence-labelled bacterial infection model rapidly detected bacterial colonization of the lungs and monitored the clearance dynamics of E. coli O157:H7-lux following IAV/PR8 infection.

Abstract
Effective long-term monitoring of tumor growth is significant for the evaluation of cancer therapy. Aggregation-induced emission-active near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent organic nanoparticles (TPFE-Rho dots) are designed and synthesized for long-term in vitro cell tracking and in vivo monitoring of tumor growth. TPFE-Rho dots display the advantages of NIR fluorescent emission, large Stokes shift (∼180 nm), good biocompatibility, and high photostability. In vitro cell tracing studies demonstrate that TPFE-Rho dots can track SK-Hep-1 cells over 11 generations. In vivo optical imaging results confirm that TPFE-Rho dots can monitor tumor growth for more than 19 days in a real-time manner. This work indicates that TPFE-Rho dots could act as NIR fluorescent nanoprobes for real-time long-term in situ in vivo monitoring of tumor growth.

Abstract
Multimodality optical imaging probes have emerged as powerful tools that improve detection sensitivity and accuracy, important in disease diagnosis and treatment. In this review, we focus on recent developments of optical fluorescence imaging (OFI) probe integration with other imaging modalities such as X-ray computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and photoacoustic imaging (PAI). The imaging technologies are briefly described in order to introduce the strengths and limitations of each techniques and the need for further multimodality optical imaging probe development. The emphasis of this account is placed on how design strategies are currently implemented to afford physicochemically and biologically compatible multimodality optical fluorescence imaging probes. We also present studies that overcame intrinsic disadvantages of each imaging technique by multimodality approach with improved detection sensitivity and accuracy.

Abstract
[18/19F]-4, an anionic GCPII/PSMA inhibitor for image-guided intervention in prostate cancer, is described. [19F]-4 is radiolabeled with a radiochemical yield that is ≥27% and a molar activity of 190 ± 50 mCi/μmol in a <1 h, one-step, aqueous isotopic exchange reaction. [19F]-4 allows PSMA expression to be imaged by fluorescence (FL) and [18F]-PET. PC3-PIP (PSMA-positive, EC50 = 6.74 ± 1.33 nM) cancers are specifically delineated in mice that bear 3 million (18 mg) PC3-PIP and PC3 (control, PSMA-negative) cells. Colocalization of [18/19F]-4 PET, fluorescence, scintillated biodistribution, and PSMA expression are observed.

Abstract
The combination of early diagnosis and complete surgical resection offers the greatest prospect of curative cancer treatment. An iodine-124/fluorescein-based dual-modality labeling reagent, 124I-Green, constitutes a generic tool for one-step installation of a positron emission tomography (PET) and a fluorescent reporter to any cancer-specific antibody. The resulting antibody conjugate would allow both cancer PET imaging and intraoperative fluorescence-guided surgery. 124I-Green was synthesized in excellent radiochemical yields of 92 ± 5% (n = 4) determined by HPLC with an improved one-pot three-component radioiodination reaction. The A5B7 carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-specific antibody was conjugated to 124I-Green. High tumor uptake of the dual-labeled A5B7 of 20.21 ± 2.70, 13.31 ± 0.73, and 10.64 ± 1.86%ID/g was observed in CEA-expressing SW1222 xenograft mouse model (n = 3) at 24, 48, and 72 h post intravenous injection, respectively. The xenografts were clearly visualized by both PET/CT and ex vivo fluorescence imaging. These encouraging results warrant the further translational development of 124I-Green for cancer PET imaging and fluorescence-guided surgery.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition is becoming an increasingly popular approach to treat cancer, as HDAC overexpression is common in many malignancies. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents systemically delivered drugs from reaching brain at effective concentration, making small-molecule-HDAC inhibition in brain tumors particularly challenging. To circumvent the BBB, novel routes for administering therapeutics are being considered in the clinic, and a need exists for drugs whose deliveries can be directly imaged, so that effective delivery across the BBB can be monitored. We report chemistry for radiolabeling the HDAC inhibitor, panobinostat, with fluoride-18 (compound-1). Like panobinostat, compound 1 retains nanomolar efficacy in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG IV and XIII) cells (IC50 = 122 and 108 nM, respectively), with lesser activity against U87 glioma. With a favorable therapeutic ratio, 1 is highly selective to glioma and demonstrates considerably less toxicity toward healthy astrocyte controls (IC50 = 5265 nM). Compound 1 is stable in aqueous solution at physiological pH (>7 days, fetal bovine serum), and its delivery can be imaged by positron emission tomography (PET). Compound 1 is synthesized in two steps, and employs rapid, late-stage aqueous isotopic exchange 18F-radiochemistry. PET is used to image the in vivo delivery of [18F]-1 to the murine central nervous system via convection enhanced delivery.

Abstract
Fluorescently labeled imaging agents can identify surgical margins in real-time to help achieve complete resections and minimize the likelihood of local recurrence. However, photon attenuation limits fluorescence-based imaging to superficial lesions or lesions that are a few millimeters beneath the tissue surface. Contrast agents that are dual-labeled with a radionuclide and fluorescent dye can overcome this limitation and combine quantitative, whole-body nuclear imaging with intraoperative fluorescence imaging. Using a multimodality chelation (MMC) scaffold, IRDye 800CW was conjugated to the clinically used somatostatin analog, 68Ga-DOTA-TOC, to produce the dual-labeled analog, 68Ga-MMC(IRDye 800CW)-TOC, with high yield and specific activity. In vitro pharmacological assays demonstrated retention of receptor-targeting properties for the dual-labeled compound with robust internalization that was somatostatin receptor (SSTR) 2-mediated. Biodistribution studies in mice identified the kidneys as the primary excretion route for 68Ga-MMC(IRDye 800CW)-TOC, along with clearance via the reticuloendothelial system. Higher uptake was observed in most tissues compared to 68Ga-DOTA-TOC but decreased as a function of time. The combination of excellent specificity for SSTR2-expressing cells and suitable biodistribution indicate potential application of 68Ga-MMC(IRDye 800CW)-TOC for intraoperative detection of SSTR2-expressing tumors.

Am J Cancer Res 2017; 7:2377-2391.

Abstract
Fluorescein is modified to bear 18F so that it can act as both a positron emitter, and a fluorophore, allowing detection by positron emission tomography (PET), scintillation, and fluorescent imaging (FL). [18F]-2 is injected into the intrathecal space of rats and used to observe the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that bathes the brain and spine. Injury in three different applications is visualized with [18F]-2: 1) detection of a 0.7 mm paranasal-sinus CSF leak (CSFL); 2) detection of 0.5 mm puncture damage to the thoracic spine (acute spinal cord injury); and 3) detection of intracerebral hemorrhage/edema because of traumatic brain injury. In all models, the location of injury is visualized with [18F]-2 at high resolution. [18F]-2 PET imaging may be a superior alternative to current clinical contrast myelography and 131I, 111In or 99mTc radionuclide cisternography. Like fluorescein, [18F]-2 may also have other uses in diagnostic or fluorescence guided medicine.

A Conjugate of Pentamethine Cyanine and 18F as a Positron Emission Tomography/Near-Infrared Fluorescence Probe for Multimodality Tumor Imaging. Int J Mol Sci 2017; 18:ijms18061214.

Abstract
The novel synthesis of a dual-modality, pentamethine cyanine (Cy5) fluorescent, 18F positron emission tomography (PET) imaging probe is reported. The probe shows a large extinction coefficient and large quantum yield in the biologically transparent, near-infrared window (650–900 nm) for in vivo fluorescent imaging. This fluorophore bears the isotope, 18F, giving a 18F-PET/near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF), bi-modal imaging probe, that combines the long-term stability of NIRF and the unlimited penetration depth of PET imaging. The bi-modal probe is labeled with 18F in a quick, one-step reaction, which is important in working with the rapid decay of 18F. The bi-modal probe bears a free carboxyl group, highlighting a PET/NIRF synthon that can be conjugated onto many advanced biomolecules for biomarker-specific in vivo dual-modal PET/NIR tumor imaging, confocal histology, and utility in multi-fluorophore, fluorescence-guided surgery. Its potential in vivo biocompatibility is explored in a quick proof-of-principal in vivo study. The dye is delivered to A549 xenograft flank-tumors to generate PET and NIRF signals at the tumor site. The tumor distribution is confirmed in ex vivo gamma counting and imaging. Pentamethine cyanine (Cy5) has the ability to preferentially accumulate in tumor xenografts. We substitute the PET/NIRF probe for Cy5, and explore this phenomenon.

Abstract
An agent for visualizing cells by positron emission tomography is described and used to label red blood cells. The labeled red blood cells are injected systemically so that intracranial hemorrhage can be visualized by positron emission tomography (PET). Red blood cells are labeled with 0.3 µg of a positron-emitting, fluorescent multimodal imaging probe, and used to non-invasively image cryolesion induced intracranial hemorrhage in a murine model (BALB/c, 2.36 × 108 cells, 100 µCi, <4 mm hemorrhage). Intracranial hemorrhage is confirmed by histology, fluorescence, bright-field, and PET ex vivo imaging. The low required activity, minimal mass, and high resolution of this technique make this strategy an attractive alternative for imaging intracranial hemorrhage. PET is one solution to a spectrum of issues that complicate single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). For this reason, this application serves as a PET alternative to [99mTc]-agents, and SPECT technology that is used in 2 million annual medical procedures. PET contrast is also superior to gadolinium and iodide contrast angiography for its lack of clinical contraindications.
