An update on clinical applications of magnetic nanoparticles for increasing the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract: Today, technologies based on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are regularly applied to biological systems with diagnostic or therapeutic aims. Nanoparticles made of the elements iron (Fe), gadolinium (Gd) or manganese (Mn) are generally used in many diagnostic applications performed under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Similar to molecular-based contrast agents, nanoparticles can be used to increase the resolution of imaging while offering well biocompatibility, poisonousness and biodistribution. Application o… Show more

“…Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have received a lot of interest because they can be easily manipulated with an external magnetic field, unlocking a wide range of applications in biomedical, engineering, material science, and environmental areas. There are several different materials that can be utilized to form magnetic nanoparticles such as nickel, , gadolinium, cobalt, , and magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) . In many applications, Fe 3 O 4 is advantageous over other materials due to the relatively low toxicity of iron oxides as well as the high abundance and low cost of the synthetic precursors.…”
