Scheme summarizing common parameters, including, size and shape [surfaces] anisotropies, as well as exchange [interfaces] and dipolar [particle clustering] interactions. Each one of them alone or in synergy with one another may act in favor of enhanced magnetic properties (M_S, H_C) for surface-stabilized nanoscale structures. Nanoclusters may provide a modular carrier engineered to combine all such parameters for the benefit of their emerging application-specific tasks, for example, such as those required for contrast generation (r₂) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and heat dissipation (SLP) in magnetic hyperthermia.

Advanced Materials Early view (2012)

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is an emerging medical imaging technique that could be a safer alternative to X-ray and CT using iodinated contrast agents, especially for patients with chronic kidney disease. Here we describe the overall technique, detail the latest advances in MPI theory, and discuss the optimal nanoparticle characteristics for MPI. We also show images taken using our latest MPI hardware, demonstrating MPI's already superb contrast and high sensitivity.

Specific absorption rate as a function of frequency !, parameterized by field strength H0. Thick lines correspond to linear polarized cases, while dashed ones to circular polarized cases. Auxiliary thin line is drawn to explore behavior around resonance ! = 1. Maximum reached for each circular polarized case when condition ! > !L is fulfilled.
