| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Three-dimensional representation of a tumor with respect to its size, shape, location, and boundaries is still a challenge in photoacoustic (PA) imaging using artificial contrast agents as probes. We carried out PA imaging of tumors in mice using 800RS-PMPC, a highly selective tumor-targeting methacrylate polymer having phosphorylcholine side chains, as a probe. The conjugate 800RS-PMPC forms compact nanoparticles (dDLS = 14.3 nm), retains the biocompatibility of the parent polymer (PMPC) and exhibits unprecedented PA performance. When applied to mice bearing a 6 × 3 × 3 mm3 tumor buried 6 mm beneath the skin, the probe 800RS-PMPC selectively accumulates in the tumor and emits PA signals that are strong enough to be unambiguously distinguished from noise signals of endogenous blood/hemoglobin. The PA image thus obtained under high-threshold conditions allows 3D characterization of the tumor in terms of its size, shape, location, and boundaries.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究で開発した NIR-PMPC プローブを用いる次世代の「光音響イメージング（PAI）」の実現は、腫瘍の高度画像診断や手術中の画像診断（術中ナビゲーション）への応用に加え、患者の負担軽減、薬物療法の最適化、さらには「がん（悪性腫瘍）」による死亡率の低減と医療費抑制に大きく貢献する。
