Do hormones cause breast cancer?

abstract：BACKGROUND:Various methods of detecting cancer with fluorescence have been developed. One type of fluorescence is based on the tumor-localizing properties of certain dyes. However, the phototoxicity of most known tumor-localizing dyes hinders the safe use of such diagnostic methods. The authors have developed a fluores...
