Gadolinium Dissolution from Nanocrystalline Oxides and Implications for Nanoparticle-Based T1 MRI Contrast Agents
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a common, noninvasive imaging technique that requires the use of contrast agents in about a third of procedures to enhance contrast between tissues. Molecular gadolinium-based chelates are the mainstream form of T1 contrast agents used in the clinic, but their administration is ass...
