Abstract

Imaging techniques continue to significantly impact clinical diagnostics and basic science research including drug discovery. However, fluorescence and nanotechnology paralleled with imaging science facilitating precise localization with contrast visualization. Fluorescence imaging and nanocarriers are the most pertinent techniques that have been widely applied in research, diagnostics, and disease prognosis. Moreover, photoacoustics and ultrasound imaging ...
