A high-performance imaging probe with NIR luminescence and synergistically enhanced T1–T2 relaxivity for in vivo hepatic tumor targeting and multimodal imaging†
Abstract
A high-performance imaging probe with NIR luminescence and synergistically enhanced T1−T2 relaxivity was synthesized. This nanoprobe exhibits a relatively high tumor-targeting efficacy and enables NIR optical and T1-/T2-weighted MR imaging of hepatic tumor cells in vivo.
