Measurement and imaging of pathogenic and diagnostic iron oxide nanoparticles using proton magnetic resonance

该项目可能会产生新的和改进的技术，以帮助管理和诊断一系列疾病，包括地中海贫血等铁代谢紊乱和阿尔茨海默病等神经退行性疾病。这项研究的其他方面可能会导致某些癌症的早期检测技术。这些技术将提高澳大利亚在先进医学成像领域的国际地位，并有可能在澳大利亚生物技术部门内实现商业化。在项目期间，研究生将接受高质量的多学科培训，确保为未来提供具有高水平技术专长的人才。

This project is likely to result in new and improved technologies to aid in the management and diagnosis of a range of diseases including iron metabolism disorders such as thalassaemia and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Other aspects of the research may lead to technologies for the early detection of some cancers. The technologies will enhance Australia's international standing in the field of advanced medical imaging and have the potential to be commercialised within the Australian biotechnology sector. During the project, research students will receive high quality multidisciplinary training ensuring the supply of personnel with high-level technical expertise into the future.
