Delivery of gadolinium-labeled nanoparticles to the sentinel lymph node: Comparison of the sentinel node visualization and estimations of intra-nodal gadolinium concentration by the magnetic resonance imaging

Sentinel node imaging is commonly performed prior to surgery for breast cancer and melanoma. While current methods are based on radio-lymphoscintigraphy, MR lymphangiography (MRL) offers the benefits of better spatial resolution without ionizing radiation. However, the optimal nanoparticle for imagi...
