Orthotopic murine model of liver cancer was generated by injection of Huh-7, HepG2 and HT-29 cells in subcapsular space of the liver. Near infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging showed significantly increased signal intensity on the tumors relative to the normal adjacent liver tissue, allowing precise delineation of the tumor and demarcation of malignant tissue from adjacent background tissue.
