Abstract

A tumor-targeting multi-mode imaging and analyzing method for living body based on gold nanoclusters can include incubating the relevant cells with chloroauric acid and the salt solution thereof with certain concentration under physiological conditions, thereby generating gold nanoclusters. After, real-time non-invasive fluorescence imaging, Raman imaging and/or ultrasonic imaging can be used to image the tumor tissue.
