In recent years, several reporter genes have been developed that can serve as a beacon for non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Here, we provide a brief summary of recent advances in MRI reporter gene technology, as well as detailed “hands-on” protocols for cloning, expression, and imaging of reporter genes based on chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST).
