Table 2. Summary of TC-71 bioluminescent signal detection in live mice and post-mortem (after dissection).

Organ In live mice Post mortem
femur 12/13 4/4
lungs 4/11 4/5
kidneys 1/11 1/5
Liver/abdomen 4/11 1/5
distant bone 3/11 2/5

One mouse with an IVIS-positive femoral tumour was culled on day 4 and could not be assessed for metastatic spread. Post mortem bioluminescence imaging of dissected organs was performed on 5 animals. The involved leg of one of these had been removed before imaging.
