We established a high penetration, high sensitivity infrared-fluorescent protein(IFP) for fluorescent imaging and synthesized the relatively high temporal and spatial resolution MR sensing contrast agent (SCA):]-galactosidase(]-gal) MR probe for producing the MR molecular imaging with a dual-imaging reporter animal model. The modality was used to verify the role of HOXA gene subfamily in gastric cancer development .It might also be useful in evaluating the effects of various therapeutic approaches. Because of the advantages offered by a combination of optical and MR images, it is hopeful that this technique will move quickly from in vitro and animal study to clinical trials.
