Although MRI produces images with an unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution,
early experiments showed that the diagnostic value might be improved significantly by …

Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles are unique MR contrast agents and are
of great interest for their multiple potentials. SPIO nanoparticles have a higher diagnostic …

This book outlines the basic principles of perfusion MR imaging. All relevant technical
aspects are addressed, contrast agents are described, imaging protocols are provided, and …

Nanobiomaterials exhibit distinctive characteristics which make them suitable for a variety of
biological applications. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the field, offering …

Layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been extensively studied as drug delivery systems.
In this work we doped LDH with dysprosium and gadolinium (GdDy-LDH). The resulting …

The hypothesis was tested that hypoperfused brain regions, such as the ischemic
penumbra, are detectable by reductions in absolute transverse relaxation time constant (T 2) …

Aim: To study the efficiency of multifunctional polymer-based superparamagnetic iron oxide
nanoparticles (bioferrofluids) as a T2 magnetic resonance contrast agent and their uptake …

Abstract Object Use of polyethylenimines (PEIs) of different molecular weight and selected
carboxylated-PEI derivatives (PEI-COOH) in the synthesis and stabilization of iron oxide …

We compare five different unsupervised clustering techniques as tools for the analysis of
dynamic susceptibility contrast MRI time series. The study included four subjects: two …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES. The authors have investigated dysprosium [Dy]-DOTA-
