Abstract
Magnetic resonance systems, devices, methods, and compositions are provided. A nuclear magnetic resonance imaging composition includes, but is not limited to, a plurality of functionalized ferromagnetic microstructures configured to generate a time-invariant magnetic field within at least a portion of one or more internal surface-defined voids.
Claims20
A composition, comprising:
- a plurality of ferromagnetic microstructures, one or more of the plurality of ferromagnetic microstructures having an external surface and an internal surface, the internal surface defining a void, the void being accessible to a biological sample, the one or more of the plurality of ferromagnetic microstructures configured to generate a time-invariant magnetic field within at least a portion of the void, at least one of the external surface or the internal surface including one or more functional groups.
An imaging system, comprising:
- a plurality of ferromagnetic microstructures, one or more of the plurality of ferromagnetic microstructures having an external surface and an internal surface, the internal surface defining a void, the void being accessible to a biological sample, the one or more of the plurality of ferromagnetic microstructures configured to generate a time-invariant magnetic field within at least a portion of the void, at least one of the external surface or the internal surface including one or more functional groups.
