Abstract
MR imaging, as well as high-resolution contrast in MR angiography. This study provides a general strategy for the controlled synthesis of ESM NPs and reveals the size and property regulation mechanisms, which undoubtedly provides the possibility of designing highly sensitive MR imaging probes based on small-sized magnetic nanoparticles for clinical diagnostic applications.
