In vivo MRI visualization of mesh shrinkage using surgical implants loaded with superparamagnetic iron oxides

BACKGROUND: Prosthetic mesh implants are widely used in hernia surgery. To show long-term mesh-related complications such as shrinkage or adhesions, a precise visualization of meshes and their vicinity in vivo is important. By supplementing mesh fibers with ferro particles, magnetic resonance imagin...
