Abstract

"Chemical Equation Presented" Light heavyweight champion: Chemically cross-linked dendrimer nanoclusters (DNCs) have been developed as a platform for preparing targeted magnetic resonance contrast agents. The extremely high gadolinium payload causes the DNCs to show a significant improvement in tumor contrast compared with pre-contrast images (see picture). © 2010 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH &. Co. KCaA.
