Quantitative Pharmacodynamics Functional Evaluation of Chinese medicine Qizhu Formula in Mice with Dynamic Near-infrared Photoacoustic Imaging

Effective anti-fibrotic drugs and new non-invasive evaluation methods for liver fibrosis (LF) are urgently needed. Our study aimed to evaluate the histological effects of the Qizhu (QZ) formula on LF and to explore a non-invasive Near-infrared photoacoustic imaging (NIR-PAI) kinetic model for liver function detection and pharmacodynamic evaluation.
