So why is this protocol significant? Well, brain metastases is very challenging to treat and this protocol produces a clinically-relevant mouse model with minimal extracranial tumors. This technique allows objective analysis of drug distribution a

Brain metastasis is a cause of severe morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Most brain metastasis mouse models are complicated by systemic metastases confounding analysis of mortality and therapeutic intervention outcomes. Presented here is a protocol for internal carotid injection of cancer cells that produces consistent intracranial tumors with minimal systemic tumors.
