摘要：
Disclosed herein is a novel MRI contrast agent. The MRI contrast agent is a metal particle having particular shape and size parameters that provides the metal particle with the ability to improve contrast by resisting transverse relaxivity saturation. The disclosed metal particle may be used in both medical and research diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, X-ray, and NMR. Also disclosed are compositions comprising the disclosed metal particle, and methods of using the metal particle. In particular disclosed embodiments, the metal particle is a barium ferrite particle.
