Heavy Metal-Based Nanoparticles as High-Performance X-ray Computed Tomography Contrast Agents

Heavy Metal-Based Nanoparticles as High-Performance X-ray Computed Tomography Contrast Agents

X-ray computed tomography (CT) contrast agents offer extremely valuable tools and techniques in diagnostics via contrast enhancements. Heavy metal-based nanoparticles (NPs) can provide high contrast in CT images due to the high density of heavy metal atoms with high X-ray attenuation coefficients th...
