A novel MRI contrast agent synthesized by ion exchange method
Objective: In this study, the zeolite-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were evaluated as MRI contrast agent and effect of the nanocomposite synthesis method on MRI contrast was tested. Materials and Methods: Ion exchange method was used for synthesis of iron oxide-zeolite and the as prepared nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM. The nanocomposite toxicity in the cell culture, a...
متن کاملMicrobubbles as a novel contrast agent for brain MRI
Gas-filled microbubbles have the potential to become a unique MR contrast agent due to their magnetic susceptibility effect, biocompatibility and localized manipulation via ultrasound cavitation. In this study, two types of microbubbles, custom-made albumin-coated microbubbles (A-MB) and a commercially available lipid-based clinical ultrasound contrast agent (SonoVue), were investigated with in...
متن کاملCorrection , Coregistration and Connectivity Analysis of Multi - Contrast Brain Mri
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a versatile imaging technique that allows probing of the various properties of the soft-tissue within the body of living organisms and has been widely used for diagnostic as well as research purposes. MRI has been very useful for studying the brain as it provides an exceptional ability to study structural, functional and dynamic properties in a non-invasive f...
متن کاملNeonatal brain image segmentation in longitudinal MRI studies
In the study of early brain development, tissue segmentation of neonatal brain MR images remains challenging because of the insufficient image quality due to the properties of developing tissues. Among various brain tissue segmentation algorithms, atlas-based brain image segmentation can potentially achieve good segmentation results on neonatal brain images. However, their performances rely on ...
متن کاملQuantitative and local mouse brain morphometry in longitudinal MRI studies
Introduction Brain morphometry is defined as studying the variations and changes of brain shape, which is key step in monitoring diseases. Brain morphometry is often performed by group-wise comparison between populations of diseased subjects and healthy controls. In earlier work, we presented the Moore-Rayleigh statistical test to quantify local shape differences between groups of transgenic mi...
