“…Fortunately, 19 F MRI has emerged as a promising alternative complement to 1 H MRI due to 19 F’s excellent sensitivity, 100% natural abundance, and low biological distribution. , These advantages make 19 F MRI a promising tool for providing nearly background-free “hot-spot” images of various targets in living organism. , Unlike 1 H MRI, which could be used without any CA, the performance of imaging probes is critical for 19 F MRI. Currently, many designing strategies have been reported to construct 19 F MRI probes for various targets, − including but not limited to endogenous biomolecules, − gut microbiota, cancer cells, − and immune cells. − However, there are limited reports on the probes for in vivo imaging of renal dysfunction. , Furthermore, the sensitivity of most conventional 19 F probes is not satisfactory due to unoptimized relaxation properties of 19 F nuclei, resulting in low-quality images and long acquisition time, which is not suitable for monitoring rapid ordinary renal functioning . Therefore, it is important and imperative to develop high-performance probes that allow fast 19 F MRI to afford clear images.…”
