“…The blood circulation time and biodistribution are needed to be specifically considered for the subsequent applications. In this context, long blood circulation time and reduced organ accumulation of USPIO nanoparticles undoubtedly make them potent candidates for a wide range of MRI applications, for example, blood pool imaging (Sandiford et al, 2013; Tromsdorf et al, 2009; Wei et al, 2017), tumor imaging (Du et al, 2020; D. Liu et al, 2020; Shi et al, 2020; Song et al, 2013; C. Yang et al, 2019; Zhang et al, 2020), atherosclerosis imaging (Alam et al, 2015; Ruetten et al, 2020; Usman et al, 2015), and inflammation imaging (Abbas et al, 2020; Lagan et al, 2020; Luo et al, 2020).…”
