PURPOSE: Here we demonstrate the potential of multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT), a new noninvasive structural and functional imaging modality, to track the growth and changes in blood oxygen saturation (sO(2)) in orthotopic glioblastoma (GBMs) and the surrounding brain tissues upon administration of a vascular disruptive agent (VDA). METHODS: Nude mice injected with U87MG tumor cells were longitudinally monitored for the development of orthotopic GBMs up to 15 days and observed for changes in sO(2) upon administration of combretastatin A4 phosphate (CA4P, 30 mg/kg), an FDA approved VDA for treating solid tumors. We employed a newly-developed non-negative constrained approach for combined MSOT image reconstruction and unmixing in order to quantitatively map sO(2) in whole mouse brains. RESULTS: Upon longitudinal monitoring, tumors could be detected in mouse brains using single-wavelength data as early as 6 days post tumor cell inoculation. Fifteen days post-inoculation, tumors had higher sO(2) of 63 +/- 11% (n = 5, P < .05) against 48 +/- 7% in the corresponding contralateral brain, indicating their hyperoxic status. In a different set of animals, 42 days post-inoculation, tumors had lower sO(2) of 42 +/- 5% against 49 +/- 4% (n = 3, P < .05) in the contralateral side, indicating their hypoxic status. Upon CA4P administration, sO(2) in 15 days post-inoculation tumors dropped from 61 +/- 9% to 36 +/- 1% (n = 4, P < .01) within one hour, then reverted to pre CA4P treatment values (63 +/- 6%) and remained constant until the last observation time point of 6 hours. CONCLUSION: With the help of advanced post processing algorithms, MSOT was capable of monitoring the tumor growth and assessing hemodynamic changes upon administration of VDAs in orthotopic GBMs.
