Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

In these proceedings, an overview on recent results of a novel imaging modality based on magnetic nanoparticles is given. This imaging concept, called magnetic particle imaging (MPI), falls into the category of functional imaging and, hence, the magnetic nanoparticles may serve as tracers of metabolic processes. Today, there are interesting challenges within the practical set-up of a scanning device and also in the design of new MPI nanoparticles. During this workshop at the University of Lübeck in 2010, scientists from chemical engineering, biology, electrical engineering, physics, computer sciences and medicine discussed the promises and challenges of MPI.

Recensione

... it focuses on a topic that is still in its infancy. Consequently many of the papers cover fundamentals, making the book very valuable for those who may be interested in this research area or in related topics such as magnetic nanoparticles ... this field covers many research disciplines, and readers may find some aspects of this book applicable to their own interests. It may even spur new applications.
