Temi di ricerca

Dario Longo lab aims to develop novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based methods for characterizing tumor microenvironment properties (acidosis, vascularization, hypoxia) in murine tumor models. We are interested in developing and validating non-invasive MRI procedures and probes for improving diagnosis and assessment of treatment effects with a special focus on tumor metabolism and on antiangiogenic drugs.

Our current projects include:

• Imaging tumor acidosis and angiogenesis
• assessing pH imaging as a novel biomarker in cancer and in renal diseases
• development of novel MRI-based probes for assessing tumor microenvironment
