Abstract
Correction for ‘An EGFRvIII targeted dual-modal gold nanoprobe for imaging-guided brain tumor surgery’ by Qi Yue et al., Nanoscale, 2017, 9, 7930–7940, https://doi.org/10.1039/C7NR01077J.
The authors regret an error in Fig. 6a of the original article, where the incorrect transition electron microscopy image of the tumor was included. The amended figure is as shown here.

| Fig. 6 AuP-FAL precisely delineating brain tumor boundary. (a) TEM images of the brain tumor and normal brain tissue from a mouse brain bearing a U87-EGFRvIII+ glioblastoma xenograft at 24 h PI of AuP-FAL (0.3 nmol kg−1) via i.v. Arrows indicate the nanoprobe. Histological H&E staining (b) and Raman microscopic image (c) of the same brain tumor marginal area. (d) Raman spectra collected at the yellow (tumor side), blue (tumor-normal brain interface) and green dots (normal brain tissue) in panel c. | ||
The authors confirm that the conclusions are not affected by this change, and that the text referring to the figure remains correct. An independent expert has viewed the corrected figure and has concluded that it is consistent with the discussions and conclusions presented in the article.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
