Superhance on the ASK


Overview


Superhance® 680 is a small molecule fluorescent in vivo blood pool imaging agent. Superhance 680 enables imaging of circulation, blood vessels, vasculature, vascular leak, including that associated with early oncologic and opthalmologic lesions.

Using Superhance in vivo


The generally recommended procedure for in vivo imaging with Superhance 680 is administration via tail vein injection and imaging 0.5 – 24 hours post-injection.

  • For Acute Edema, we recommend imaging 3 hours post injection.
  • For IVM: 5-15 min post injection

To determine the optimal imaging timepoint relative to agent injection, we imaged 4T1 tumor-bearing mice at different times post-Superhance 680 injection (Figure 1). Whole body images at 3 h post-injection (Figure 1A) reveal signal throughout the body (including bladder, intestines, liver, and heart) as well as in the tumor periphery.
