Abstract:
Novel sub-microsized graphitic carbon shells embedding nanometric Gd(III) oxidic phases feature thermal and chemical inertness with enhanced T2 relaxation in aqueous dispersions, thus representing potential candidates for dual diagnostic (magnetic resonance imaging) and therapeutic (neutron capture therapy) applications.
