A case study to demonstrate fluorescence tomography of endogenous protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) in breast cancer is presented. An MRI-coupled fluorescence tomography system with spectrometer detectors was used to acquire excitation and emission data through the breast of a human subject undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. Volumetric images of PPIX fluorescence showed elevated levels of fluorescence activity in the fibro-glandular tissue as compared to the adipose tissue. Fluorescence levels in the tumor were higher than in the adipose tissue but lower than the fibro-glandular tissue.
