Fluorescence imaging for breast tumor in vivo was performed using nude mice as models. Results indicate high uptake in tumor at 20 h. Tumor-non tumor ratio was determined as 2.25. The imaging results demonstrate the potential of this fluorescence-imaging agent in the diagnosis of breast tumor. In the future, subphthalocyanine is also developing as a dual functional, which is fluorescence imaging and as a photodynamic therapeutic agent for the treatment and diagnosis of cancer.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSubphthalocyanineFluorescence imagingMammary tumorNude miceArticle10.1016/j.pdpdt.2019.04.02226361365Q2WOS:0004743304000612-s2.0-8506513040131026614Q1
