Biomolecular imaging of colorectal tumor lesions using a FITC-labeled scFv-Cκ fragment antibody

Abstract For the sensitive diagnosis of colorectal cancer lesions, advanced molecular imaging techniques using cancer-specific targets have emerged. However, issues regarding the clearance of unbound probes and immunogenicity remain unresolved. To overcome these limitations, we developed a small-siz...
