Imaging the invisible in preclinical models using magnetic particle imaging (MPI Magnetic Particle Imaging) Ghent University
The Magnetic Partcile Imaging (MPI) workflow combines some of the best features of existing medical imaging methods: (1) easy as optical imaging, (2) specific as positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging, (3) fast as computed tomography (CT) imaging, and (4) safe as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This will be explored in detail below. MPI has the sensitivity and ease of use of optical imaging. With a nanomolar detection limit, MPI sensitivity can be compared with in vivo fluorescence imaging, but without the confounding tissue ...
