Zero-Field Splitting in Gd(III) complexes : Towards a molecular understanding of paramagnetic relaxation

The prime objectives of contrast agents in Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) is to accelerate the relaxation rate of the solvent water protons in the surrounding tissue. Paramagnetic relaxation originates from dipole-dipole interactions between the nuclear spins and the fluctuating magnetic field indu...
