Imagine a routine examination in the clinic of the future. After the patient receives a tracer, a whole body scan reveals a potential tumor. The clinicians performs an optical biopsy, zooming in from the whole body to the tissue containing the suspected tumor and proceeding to look for telltale signs at the cellular and sub cellular levels. This day is getting closer with recent advances in quantum dot technology and optical imaging. Application of these nanoparticulate beacons to cancer has the potential to provide information unique to each length scale, from the whole body down to molecular targets...
