Conjugation of functionalized SPIONs with transferrin for targeting and imaging brain glial tumors in rat model.
Currently, effective and specific diagnostic imaging of brain glioma is a major challenge. Nanomedicine plays an essential role by delivering the contrast agent in a targeted manner to specific tumor cells, leading to improvement in accurate diagnosis by good visualization and specific demonstration...
