Sumario:Recently, magnetic photothermal nanomaterials have attracted much attention in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. In this study, we developed the ultrasmall magnetic CuFeSe(2) nanoparticles for CT/MR dual-modal imaging. By controlling the reaction time and condition, CuFeSe(2) nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple directly aqueous method. After modification with copolymer methoxy polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone (MPEG-PCL), the obtained MPEG-PCL@CuFeSe(2) nanoparticles showed excellent water solubility, colloidal stability, and biocompatibility. In addition, they also exhibited superparamagnetism and X-ray's characteristics. For these properties, they will become ideal nanomaterials for CT/MR dual-modal imaging.
