The use of NaLuF4: Yb,Tm@NaGdF4(153Sm) for four-modal imaging of tumor-bearing nude mice at 60 min post intravenous injection. A-D represent images obtained from upconversion luminescence (UCL), X-ray CT, SPECT, and MR of tumor, respectively. E exhibits UCL confocal image of the paraffin section of tumor tissue, and F is actually a schematic illustration of tumor angiogenesis imaging by applying the nanoparticles as the probe.
