Quantifying Liver Heterogeneity via R2*-MRI with Super-Paramagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPION) to Characterize Liver Function and Tumor
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Super-paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are phagocytized by the hepatic Kupffer cells (KC) in the liver and shorten MRI signals within the volume of functional liver parenchyma (FLP) where KCs are found. However, malignant tumors lacking KCs exhibit minimal signal change...
