The Chemistry of Organic Contrast Agents in the NIR-II Window

Abstract Organic fluorophores in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) range have been validated as attractive imaging tools in biomedical research owing to their biocompatibility, flexible chemical structure, and tunable spectra. This Review systematically summarizes recent advances in the chemistry, design principles, and optical properties of NIR-II organic contrast agents.
