BIOMARKER-TARGETING CONTRAST AGENTS AND THEIR USE IN MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING FOR DETECTION OF ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE |
摘要 |
A composition comprising: a liposome having a bilayer structure, a gadofullerene having a high relaxivity, and an amphiphilic receptor ligand. In the composition, the gadofullerene is embedded in the bilayer structure of the liposome. In addition, a method for detecting atherosclerotic plaque in an animal using the composition is described. |
