Description
Methylene blue (MB) is a biocompatible and environmentally friendly material that has been widely used in clinical and biomedical research fields for over a century. In addition, it also has wide applications in other fields, such as dyeing and finishing industry, aquaculture industry, photocatalysis and food industry.
This landmark publication is unique as it covers MB-mediated in vivo fluorescence, photoacoustic imaging and light-induced cancer therapy. The optical properties and photothermal effect of MB are also systematically described.
Contents:
- Optical Properties of Methylene Blue
- Photothermal Effect of Methylene Blue
- Methylene Blue for Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping via In Vivo Fluorescence Imaging
- Methylene Blue for Sentinel Lymph Node Photoacoustic Imaging
- Methylene Blue for In Vivo Tumor Fluorescence Imaging and Intraoperative Guidance in Surgery
- Methylene Blue for Cancer Photodynamic and Photothermal Therapy
- Incorporating Methylene Blue into Nanoparticles for Cancer Phototherapy
- Toxicity of Methylene Blue
Readership: This book will be useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students, clinical doctors, basic research personnels, researchers and developers, and also technical non-specialists.
Key Features:
- Methylene blue (MB) is a biocompatible and environmentally friendly material. MB has been widely used in clinical and biomedical research fields. It also has been widely used in other fields, such as dyeing and finishing industry, aquaculture industry, photocatalysis and food industry. However, no book has been published on MB properties, bioimaging and cancer therapy
- The MB-mediated in vivo fluorescence and photoacoustic imaging and light-induced cancer therapy were systematically described for the first time. The optical properties and photothermal effect of MB were also systematically described
- The readers may understand the properties and biomedical applications of MB in a short time
