Targeting CD44v6 for fluorescence-guided surgery in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is an often highly invasive tumor, infiltrating functionally important tissue areas. Achieving complete tumor resection and preserving functionally relevant tissue structures depends on precise identification of tumor-free resection margins duri...
