Cellular Imaging of Inflammation in Atherosclerosis Using Magnetofluorescent Nanomaterials

Objective: Magnetofluorescent nanoparticles (MFNPs) offer the ability to image cellular inflammation in vivo. To better understand their cellular targeting and imaging capabilities in atherosclerosis, we investigated prototypical dextran-coated near-infrared fluorescent MFNPs in the apolipoprotein E...
