Superparamagnetic iron oxide particles find their main application as contrast agents for cellular and molecular magnetic resonance imaging. The they bring is due to the shortening of transverse relaxation time T 2 water protons. In order understand influence on proton relaxation, different theoretical models have been developed, each them presenting a certain validity domain, which depends particle characteristics dynamics. validation these crucial since allow predicting ideal obtaining...
In this work, aqueous solutions of magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) are studied. Magnetite NPs very useful in biomedicine for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), drug delivery therapy, and also hyperthermia. order to predict the NP efficiency these applications, it is crucial accurately characterize their size distribution magnetization. Magnetometry, through dependence magnetization on induction (MB curve), can provide interesting information physical properties. extraction from experimental MB...
Nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion (NMRD) profiles are essential tools to evaluate the efficiency and investigate properties of compounds used as contrast agents for resonance imaging (MRI), namely gadolinium chelates superparamagnetic iron oxide particles. These curves represent evolution proton rates with field. NMRD unparalleled probe extensively spectral density function involved in water presence paramagnetic ion or nanoparticles. This makes such an excellent test adequacy a...
