Magnetic particle imaging: a novel SPIO nanoparticle imaging technique

Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a novel imaging modality. In MPI superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles are used as tracer materials. The volume is the proceeding of the 2nd international workshop on magnetic particle imaging (IWMPI). The workshop aims at covering the status and recent developments of both, the instrumentation and the tracer material, as each of them is equally important in designing a well performing MPI. For instance, the current state of the art in magnetic coil design for MPI is discussed. With a new symmetricalarrangement of coils, a field-free line (FFL) can be produced that promises asignificantly higher sensitivity compared with the standard arrangement for aFFP. Furthermore, the workshop aims at presenting results from phantom and pre-clinical studies. A state of the art review on Magnetic Particle Imaging. Shows improvement in all technology aspects. Written by experts. INDICE: Magnetic Nanoparticles. Magnetic Particle Spectrometry. Magnetic Particle Imaging. Imaging Technology and Safety Aspects. Magneto-Relaxometry. Medical Applications.
