Iron oxide particles for atheroma imaging.
The selection of patients for vascular interventions has been solely based on luminal stenosis and symptomatology. However, histological data from both the coronary and carotid vasculature suggest that other plaque features such as inflammation may be more important in predicting future thromboembolic events. Ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) contrast agents have been used for non...
متن کاملIn vivo detection of macrophages in human carotid atheroma: temporal dependence of ultrasmall superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide-enhanced MRI.
UNLABELLED Background- It has been suggested that inflammatory cells within vulnerable plaques may be visualized by superparamagnetic iron oxide particle-enhanced MRI. The purpose of this study was to determine the time course for macrophage visualization with in vivo contrast-enhanced MRI using an ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) agent in symptomatic human carotid disease. MET...
متن کاملIron oxide-loaded liposomes for MR imaging.
In this study a liposome cell labeling system was developed for non-target-specific labeling of glioma cells with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A high non-target-specific uptake is ideal for in vitro labeling of cells and subsequently for cell tracking and visualization of phagocytic cells in vivo. The preparation of iron oxide-loaded liposomes...
متن کاملA New Potential Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Iron Oxide-4A Nanocomposite
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have an important role to differentiate healthy and diseased tissues. Access and design new contrast agents for the optimal use of MRI are necessary. This study aims to evaluate iron oxide–4A nanocomposite ability to act as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.Materials and Methods: Iron oxide–4A nanocomposite (F4A) was syn...
متن کاملImaging pathobiology of carotid atherosclerosis with ultrasmall superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide: an update
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide brief overview of the developments regarding use of ultrasmall superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide in imaging pathobiology of carotid atherosclerosis. RECENT FINDINGS MRI is a promising technique capable of providing morphological and functional information about atheromatous plaques. MRI using iron oxide particles, called ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron o...
