University of California, San Francisco, CA 1 ~60% of cancer patients undergo surgery to remove a primary tumor, and precise removal of all cancer cells is vital for optimal outcomes [1]. Microscopic clusters of cancer cells are intraoperatively hard to visualize and are often left behind, significantly increasing the risk of cancer recurrence. Radioguided surgery (RGS) is one technique that has been shown to help prevent this [2]. This method involves conjugating a gamma photon (γ)-emitting radioisotope to a cancer-targeting molecule and administering this radioactive tracer intravenously to the patient before surgery where it preferentially binds to cancer cells. During surgery, a γ-sensing probe is used to locate areas with γ signal to remove all cancerous lesions, and since γ’s have superior tissue penetration properties compared to visible photons used in microscopy [3], deeper lesions can be sensed as well. State-of-theart γ probes show the benefit of RGS but lack the form-fact
