The sensitivity of magnetic particle imaging and fluorine-19 magnetic resonance imaging for cell tracking
Abstract Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) and fluorine-19 (19F) MRI produce images which allow for quantification of labeled cells. MPI is an emerging instrument for cell tracking, which is expected to have superior sensitivity compared to 19F MRI. Our objective is to assess the cellular sensitivity...
