Optimization of iron oxide nanoparticle detection using ultrashort echo time pulse sequences: Comparison of T 1 , T 2 , and synergistic T 1 − T 2 contrast mechanisms

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are used in various MRI applications as negative contrast agents. A major challenge is to distinguish regions of signal void due to IONPs from those due to low signal tissues or susceptibility artifacts. To overcome this limitation, several positive contrast strategi...
