Advances in engineering nanoparticles for magnetic particle imaging (MPI).

ABSTRACT: Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is an emerging imaging modality with exciting biomedical applications, such as cell tracking, blood pool imaging, and image-guided magnetic hyperthermia. MPI is unique in that signal is generated entirely by synthetic nanoparticle tracers, motivating precise engineering of magnetic nanoparticle properties including size, shape, composition, and coating to address the needs of specific applications. However, success in many applications and in clinical transition requires development of high-sensitivity and high-resolution tracers, for which there is considerable room for improvement. This review summarizes recent advancements in MPI tracer synthesis and compares reported tracers in terms of sensitivity and resolution. In making these comparisons, we point ou
