Article Synopsis
- - T mapping is a fast and quantitative MRI technique that measures proton relaxation rates to visualize tissue structures, often used in cardiac imaging but not extensively studied for tumors.
- - Recent studies using T mapping on two tumor models showed it can effectively differentiate between normal and cancerous tissues, even under challenging imaging conditions.
- - The findings indicate that relaxation mapping yields distinct values for different tissue types surrounding tumors, suggesting its potential for tracking tumor progression and identifying small metastases.
The advancement of biomedicine in a socioeconomically sustainable manner while achieving efficient patient-care is imperative to the health and well-being of society. Magnetic systems consisting of iron based nanosized components have gained prominence among researchers in a multitude of biomedical applications. This review focuses on recent trends in the areas of diagnostic imaging and drug delivery that have benefited from iron-incorporated nanosystems, especially in cancer treatment, diagnosis and wound care applications.

Nanomaterials supply platforms for multivalent displays of glycans, mediate 'rogue' signal correction, and provide disease treatment modalities (therapeutics).
