Abstract
The raising burden of cancer can be controlled by fabricating smart nanomaterials that can detect tumours easily. In this study, we report about the preparation of radiopaque fibrin nanocomplex (RFN) for imaging solid tumours. The nanocomplex exhibits high X-ray absorption and therefore utilizes X-ray radiography and computed tomography (CT) for imaging tumours. The CT images taken after intratumoral administration of RFN in tumor bearing mice displayed excellent visibility of tumour. Moreover, increased amount of RFN was seen at the site of tumour after 45 min of post-injection. These research findings prove the promising use of RFN as a valuable tool for imaging solid tumours.
