Hyperpolarized Silicon Particles as In-vivo Imaging Agents
(2012-11-02)This thesis describes the development of hyperpolarized silicon particles as a new type of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agent. Silicon particles are inexpensive, non-toxic, biodegradable, targetable, and have unique ... -
Silicon Nanoparticles as Hyperpolarized Magnetic Resonance Imaging Agents
(American Chemical Society, 2009)Magnetic resonance imaging of hyperpolarized nuclei provides high image contrast with little or no background signal. To date, in vivo applications of prehyperpolarized materials have been limited by relatively short nuclear ...
