In Vitro and in Vivo Studies of FePt Nanoparticles for Dual Modal CT/MRI Molecular Imaging.

The water-solvable FePt nanoparticles of 3, 6, and 12 nm in diameter (3 nm-, 6 nm-, and 12 nm-FePt) were synthesized and applied as a dual modality contrast agent for CT/MRI molecular imaging. These nanoparticles present excellent biocompatibility and hemocompatibility in all test concentrations for...
