## Abstract An intravascular ironโbased contrast agent was used as a sodium (^23^Na) MRI __T__~2~ relaxant in an effort to suppress the blood signal from the ventricular cavities in normal and infarcted canine myocardium in vivo. ^23^Na MRI signal decreases in blood were attributed to decreases in
## Abstract Longโdistance effects of a superparamagnetic contrast agent (AMI227) were investigated by phosphorusโ31 NMR spectroscopy at 7.05 Tesla. In an initial methodological approach, the effects observed on phantoms were compared to the results of theoretical calculations. In a second step, the
Colloidal iron oxides play an important role as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents. The superparamagnetic particles actually used are constituted by solid cores (diameter of 5-15 nm), generally coated by a thick polysaccharidic layer (hydrodynamic radii of 30-100 nm), and formulated by
## Abstract Superparamagnetic iron oxide particles, a new class of contrast agents for MRI, are extremely good enhancers of proton relaxation. However, the development of such particle systems has resulted in a wide range of preparations whose physicoโchemical properties differ greatly. We have con
