Vascular disrupting agents (VDAs) can be used to damage the tumour vasculature, suppressing oxygen and nutrition supply to the tumour tissue. Photoacoustic imaging was used to assess the structural and functional changes of the tumour vasculature and evaluate the efficacy of the VDAs. Tissues are irradiated with short laser pulses and the photoacoustic waves are analyzed to extract vessel size and hemoglobin composition to evaluate the VDA, hours after administration.

Abstract

Vascular disrupting agents (VDAs) can be used to damage the tumour vasculature, suppressing oxygen and nutrition supply to the tumour tissue. Photoacoustic imaging was used to assess the structural and functional changes of the tumour vasculature and evaluate the efficacy of the VDAs. Tissues are irradiated with short laser pulses and the photoacoustic waves are analyzed to extract vessel size and hemoglobin composition to evaluate the VDA, hours after administration.
