Nanometer-sized colloidal particles (nanoparticles) have been extensively used in biomedical applications as a result of their many useful electronic, optical, and magnetic properties that are derived from their nanometer size and composition. [1] Semiconductor nanoparticles (also known as quan-tum
## Abstract A preparation of ultra‐small superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) particles coupled to an RGD peptide (RGD‐USPIO) was investigated as an MR contrast agent, targeted to activated platelets, in both ex vivo and in vivo thrombus models. Thrombus visualization ex vivo was compared using RGD
## Abstract In this study, we report the synthesis and the evaluation as MRI contrast agent of a new compound (nitroxyl fatty acid, NFA), where a pyrrolidinoxyl radical (3‐carboxy‐proxyl, PCA) is linked to a fatty acid moiety. Fatty acids were selected as vector because they present a high affinity
