We developed a cyclo‐RGD peptide‐conjugated antiferromagnetic nanoparticle (RANP) as a targeted T1 contrast agent. Under 9 T MRI conditions, RANP exhibited an r1 value of 1.88 mM−1 s−1 and a low r2/r1 ratio of 1.84, enabling the detection of esophageal tumors as small as 0.8 mm in vivo. Abstract Early, non‐invasive detection of esophageal cancer at sub‐
