Figure 3

In vivo imaging of 10% BC particles injected in the left femur of nude mice from day 0 to day 10. Images were analyzed with a standardized protocol as explained in the text. Note the positive blue-purple (pseudocolor) signal in the left femur containing BC, indicating accumulation of macrophages. Images at day 12 and 14 were not included in this figure since they have higher signals at operated left femora but also with higher background signals from the kidney and skull. Except for day 0 and day 2 (their scale bar Max = 50,000), the other scale bar have a Max = 1.0 × 106 p/sec/cm2/sr as shown in the right of the figure.
