In situ and ex vivo fluorescence imaging of RGD-HFn-Cy5.5 and HFn-Cy5.5 in murine abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). a Both in situ and ex vivo images showed enhanced AAA signal in RGD+ mice (injected with RGD-HFn-Cy5.5) compared to RGD mice (injected with HFn-Cy5.5). (In situ images: supine position with the head on the left, dotted lines outline aortic position). b Quantitative analysis showed RGD+ mice with significantly higher AAA signal (normalized to non-diseased aorta) compared to RGD mice, both in situ and ex vivo. *p=0.03 vs. RGD group.
