Recent Advances in PET-MR Hybrid contrast agent
Introduction: All of the Imaging modalities have advantages and disadvantages alone. So if we want to have the best and perfect image, combining these modalities produces something we desired. PET-MR images consist of morphologic and metabolic data. MRI and PET provide high spatial and contrast resolution and high sensitivity and molecular information respectively. Hybrid PET-...
متن کاملThe effect of contrast agent on delivered dose during diagnostic imaging of thoracic region
This study evaluated the impact of contrast material on the estimation of absorbed dose due to computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) using the ICRP reference phantoms. To address this issue, we modified the previously developed physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to be conformed to the ICRP reference phantoms. Regarding the standard contrast material injection protocol...
متن کاملA New Potential Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Iron Oxide-4A Nanocomposite
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have an important role to differentiate healthy and diseased tissues. Access and design new contrast agents for the optimal use of MRI are necessary. This study aims to evaluate iron oxide–4A nanocomposite ability to act as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.Materials and Methods: Iron oxide–4A nanocomposite (F4A) was syn...
متن کامل[New advances on diagnostic imaging in spinal pathology].
In the past years, there has been a remarkable improvement on imaging technology. Magnetic resonance (MR) is the method of choice for detection, diagnosis and therapeutic management for many disorders of the spine. A variety of innovative new MR methods have been developed. These new techniques include molecular diffusion sequences, MR myelography, a complete study of the entire spine, kinemati...
متن کاملThe Assessment of Toxicity Characteristics of Cellular Uptake of Paramagnetic Nanoparticles as a New Magnetic Resonance Imaging Contrast Agent
Nanoparticles are unique that enable many promising medical and technological applications intheir physical, and chemical properties. It is widely accepted that nanoparticles should bethoroughly tested for health nanotoxicity, but a moderate risk analysis is currently prevented by arevealing absence of mechanistic knowledge of nanoparticle toxicity. The purpose of this study<b...
