The present invention relates to intraoperative fluorescent imaging (IFI) used both pre-clinically using in-vivo models, as well as clinically to map sentinel lymph nodes in breast cancer, skin cancer, GI cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and several other cancers. IFI can be used to image solid tumors both non-specifically in hepatobiliary and breast cancers as well as in prostate and ovarian cancer. In one embodiment, two-dimensional resolution to 10 μm.sup.2 is possible with optical imaging, significantly higher than other imaging modalities. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a series of self-assembled nanoparticles using HLA (hyaluronic acid) as both a polymeric backbone as well as targeting ligand. In some embodiments, the present invention relates to the synthesis of HLA conjugates, and the effect of variation of the hydrophobic ligand structure and conjugation level on nanoparticle self-assembly, size, ICG loading efficiency, and ICG fluorescence quenching and reactivation.

The present invention aims to dramatically increase the effect of hepatic arterial chemoembolization by developing human serum albumin-based nanoparticles, which are bioproteins that effectively carry Adriamycin in place of Adriamycin, an anticancer agent used in hepatic arterial chemoembolization. The human serum albumin nanoparticles carrying the Adriamycin not only intensively infiltrate the drug effectively into the cells but also have a synergistic effect that can induce a long-term therapeutic effect by utilizing the effect of continuous drug release from the particles.
