Nanoprobes for MRI and optical imaging are demonstrated. Gd@C-dots possess strong fluorescence and can effectively enhance signals on T1 -weighted MR images. The nanoprobes have low toxicity, and, despite a relatively large size, can be efficiently excreted by renal clearance from the host after systemic injection.
展示了用于磁共振成像(MRI)和光学成像的纳米探针。钆@碳点具有强烈的荧光,并且可以有效地增强T1加权磁共振图像上的信号。这些纳米探针具有低毒性,并且尽管尺寸相对较大,但在全身注射后可以通过肾脏清除从宿主体内有效排出。
