'Multi-Coloured' Tracers for Magnetic Particle Imaging

磁粒子成像(MPI)被认为是未来成像技术的发展方向，它将凭借“色彩”、更高的分辨率和3D精确度超越目前所有的成像技术。该项目旨在通过合成一系列最有效的磁性纳米颗粒结构来创建“多色”高性能MPI示踪剂。预期的结果是从根本上理解纳米粒子结构与其磁性之间的关系，以形成具有不同“颜色”的MPI信号。其好处将是建立一个MPI示踪库，能够提供比其他成像技术所能达到的“彩色”、高强度、精确的信号。

Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is predicted to be the future of imaging and will outperform all current imaging techniques by having 'colours', improved resolution and 3D precision. This project aims to create 'multi-coloured' high-performance MPI tracers by synthesising a range of the most effective magnetic nanoparticle structures. The expected outcome is the fundamental understanding of the relationships between nanoparticle structures and their magnetic properties for the formation of MPI signals with distinct ‘colours’. The benefits will be a library of MPI tracers that are able to provide ‘coloured’, high intensity, precise signals beyond what can be achieved with other imaging technologies.
