- Abstract
The article discusses a study on the use of gadolinium-labeled quantum dots (QDs) as a contrast agent for molecular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The study used in vivo longitudinal and transverse rate relaxation rate mapping to compare longitudinal and transverse relaxation rate-based contrast improvement, proton visibility and changes induced by QDs targeted to the angiogenic vasculature of tumors in mice. Under the study, cyclic tripeptide asparagine-glycine-arginine (cNGR) was used to label paramagnetic gadolinium chelates (pQDs).
