In vivo tracking of human neural stem cells with 19F magnetic resonance imaging.
BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a promising tool for monitoring stem cell-based therapy. Conventionally, cells loaded with ironoxide nanoparticles appear hypointense on MR images. However, the contrast generated by ironoxide labeled cells is neither specific due to ambiguous backgrou...
