Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide–Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Neuroinflammation in a Rat Model of Radicular Pain
In many clinical cases of radicular pain, no noticeable neuropathology is detected by conventional medical imaging strategies. Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles were evaluated as magnetic resonance contrast agents to specifically detect neuroinflammation at sites of painful injury in...
