Cerium oxide nanoparticles with antioxidant capabilities and gadolinium integration for MRI contrast enhancement
Abstract The chelating gadolinium-complex is routinely used as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) -contrast enhancer. However, several safety issues have recently been reported by FDA and PRAC. There is an urgent need for the next generation of safer MRI-contrast enhancers, with improved local contras...
