متن کاملMR Contrast Agents
Despite the excellent soft tissue contrast pro› vided by plain MRI, the use of intravascular contrast agents is often performed in a variety of clinical settings being an instrumental component of many MR studies. Several compounds have been developed for contrast-enhanced MR imaging of the abdomen, with the purpose of increasing tumor detection and differentiation between normal and pathologic...
متن کاملP22 viral capsids as nanocomposite high-relaxivity MRI contrast agents.
Attachment of multiple chelated Gd(3+) ions to the interior of bacteriophage P22 viral capsids affords nanoscale MRI contrast agents with extremely high relaxivity values. Highly fenestrated "wiffleball" morphology is unique to P22 and assures water exchange between the environment and interior cavity of the capsid. The cavity of P22 "wiffleball" was functionalized with a branched oligomer comp...
متن کاملRelaxivity tissue differentiation among Gd-based contrast agents in ex-vivo mouse embryo imaging
Introduction The role of MRI in developmental biology, specifically in mouse embryo organogenesis and phenotyping, is significantly increasing due to technologies that allow for high image resolution and throughput [1]. The soft tissue contrast in MRI makes it a candidate for observing the normal development of the mouse embryo or alternatively genetic abnormalities that may affect organogenesi...
متن کاملHepatocyte-targeted MR contrast agents: contrast enhanced detection of liver cancer in diffusely damaged liver.
The performance of hepatocyte-targeted magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agents in the detection of liver tumor was tested in rats with hepatitis. Hepatocyte-targeted MR contrast agents (paramagnetic hepatobiliary complex [manganese-DPDP] and superparamagnetic iron oxide coated with arabinogalactan [SPIO-AG]) were injected into normal rats and rats with carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatitis. Be...
