A new contrast agent for MRI
New iron oxide nanoparticles could help avoid a rare side effect caused by current contrast agents
15-Feb-2017 -
A new, specially coated iron oxide nanoparticle developed by a team at MIT and elsewhere could provide an alternative to conventional gadolinium-based contrast agents used for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures. In rare cases, the currently used gadolinium agents have been found to ...
