Metastatic model of human tumor xenografts have been developed using orthotopic transplantation of histologically intact tissue (onplantation) of lung, stomach, colon, pancreatic, prostate and bladder carcinomas. These models represent the entire process of the metastasis, consisting of local tumor

## Abstract We describe the development of an aggressive orthotopic metastatic model of esophageal cancer, which is visualized in real time with combined magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fluorescence imaging. The aim of the study was to describe the development of a novel model of metastatic tu
## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: Our goal was to develop a noninvasive, dynamic imaging method that would further the understanding of head and neck cancer (HNC) tumor growth and local spreading. We developed a novel orthotopic mouse model of HNC with a stable cell line expressing a red fluor
## BACKGROUND. To study the metastatic behavior of human prostate cancer cell lines, orthotopic injection in nude mice was performed. METHODS. Local tumor growth, metastasis formation, prostate-specific antigen, and androgen receptor expression were examined. RESULTS. Hormone-independent cell line
## Abstract Pancreatic adenocarcinoma has a rising incidence and a very poor survival rate. To develop new treatment strategies, extensive research is performed on animal models of pancreatic cancer. Orthotopic pancreatic tumors models, where the tumor is implanted into the pancreas, resemble the h
Few animal models are available to study metastasis formation. The purpose of the present study was to obtain a useful model of metastasis formation in nude mice in an attempt to analyze the stroma reaction and in particular the production and the expression of hyaluronan (HA), hyaluronidase, and HA
