## Abstract In proton magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) metallic substances lead to magnetic field distortions that often result in signal voids in the adjacent anatomic structures. Thus, metallic objects and superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)βlabeled cells appear as hypointense artifacts that obsc
## Abstract Contrast agents incorporating superparamagnetic ironβoxide nanoparticles have shown promise as a means to visualize labeled cells using MRI. Labeled cells cause significant signal dephasing due to the magnetic field inhomogeneity induced in water molecules near the cell. With the result
## Abstract MRI is emerging as a diagnostic modality to track ironβoxideβlabeled stem cells. This study investigates whether an offβresonance (OR) pulse sequence designed to generate positive contrast at 1.5T can assess the location, quantity, and viability of delivered stem cells in vivo. Using mo
## Abstract Myocardial regeneration with stemβcell transplantation is a possible treatment option to reverse deleterious effects that occur after myocardial infarction. Since little is known about stem cell survival after transplantation, developing techniques for βtrackingβ cells would be desirabl
