Excerpt

Molecular imaging of fibrin offers a sensitive way to detect ruptured atherosclerotic plaque with MRI. To date we and others have heavily explored the use of gadolinium and manganese as paramagnetic metals to provide T1 contrast. In this project, we developed the first bivalent copper nanocolloids for MR molecular imaging of thrombus. …
