Abstract
Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease comprising a variety of genotypes and phenotypes of varying levels of aggressiveness. This presents significant challenges to clinical management of early-stage cancers. In this paper, we describe the use of multimodal optical technologies including near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) and indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging to evaluate the aggressiveness and progression of two patient-derived xenograft models of human breast cancer. Optical markers reveal distinctive features between low- and high-aggressiveness tumors that could potentially be translated for clinical use.
