Bioimaging has revolutionized modern medicine, and nanotechnology can offer further specific and sensitive imaging. We report here an amphiphilic dendrimer able to self-assemble into supramolecular nanomicelles for effective tumor detection using SPECT radioimaging. This highlights the promising potential of supramolecular dendrimer platforms for biomedical imaging. Copyright (C) 2020 The Royal Society of Chemistry
