Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles with Co-Condensed Gadolinium Chelates for Multimodal Imaging
Several mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) contrast agents have been synthesized using a co-condensation method to incorporate two different Gd3+ complexes at very high loadings (15.5–28.8 wt %).

CardioMEMS Implantation Using Gadolinium-based Contrast Agent: A Case Report
A 57-year-old woman with New York Heart Association Class III heart failure requiring multiple hospitalisations over the previous year presented for CardioMEMS implantation. Because of the patient’s allergy history of anaphylaxis to iodine-based contrast

Electrospun Contrast Agent-Loaded Fibers for Colon-Targeted MRI [PDF]
Magnetic resonance imaging is a diagnostic tool used for detecting abnormal organs and tissues, often using Gd(III) complexes as contrast-enhancing agents. In this work, core-shell polymer fibers have been prepared using coaxial electrospinning, with the

MRI Signal Intensity Analysis of Novel Protein-based MRI Contrast Agents
Contrast agents are of great importance in clinical applications of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to improve the contrast of internal body structures and to obtain tissue-specific image. However, current approved contrast agents still have limitations

Manganese ferrite nanocubes as an MRI contrast agent
Facile synthesis of superparamagnetic, highly crystalline, manganese ferrite nanocubes (MnNCs) is reported. X-ray diffraction depicts single-phase face-centred cubic spinel and the electron microscopy represents the nearly monodispersed cube-like ...
