Highly brain-permeable apoferritin nanocage with high dysprosium loading capacity as a new T2 contrast agent for ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging

High sensitivity at ultra-high field (UHF) and sufficient potential to penetrate the brain are the most desirable characteristics in the development of contrast agents (CAs) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, incorporating such qualities into a single nanocarrier is challenging. Herein,...
