The number of perfused vessels in tumours is increased following the heating of patient tumour xenograft tumour-bearing mice (n = 3) after systemic heat treatment. (A) Representative fluorescence micrographs (20×) showing perfused blood vessels in patient tumour (no. 19705) xenografts in unheated control (left) and in heated mice (right). Circles highlight representative vessels; the brightest intensity is the vessel and the grey is extravasated liposomes. (B) Plot of the number of perfused vessels determined using NIH ImageJ on the micrographs above. The numbers of perfused vessels show statistically significant increase. Scale bar = 100 μm (Student t-test *p <0.05).
