    摘要: This invention relates to materials exhibiting certain magnetic and biological properties which make them uniquely suitable for use as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agents to enhance MR images of animal organs and tissues. More particularly, the invention relates to the in vivo use of biologically degradable and metabolizable superparamagnetic metal oxides as MR contrast agents. Depending on their preparation, these metal oxides are in the form of superparamagnetic particle dispersoids or superparamagnetic fluids where the suspending medium is a physiologically-acceptable carrier, and may be uncoated or surrounded by a polymeric coating to which biological molecules can be attached. These materials are administered to animals, including humans, by a variety of routes and the metal oxides therein collect in specific target organs to be imaged; in the case of coated particles, the biological molecules can be chosen to target specific organs or tissues. The biodistribution of the metal oxides in target organs or tissues results in a more detailed image of such organs or tissues because the metal oxides, due to their superparamagnetic properties, exert profound effects on the hydrogen nuclei responsible for the MR image. In addition, the dispersoids and fluids are quite stable and, in the case of the fluids, can even be subjected to autoclaving without impairing their utility. Furthermore, the materials are biodegradable and, in the case of iron oxide compounds, can eventually be incorporated into the subject's hemoglobin, making them useful in treating anemia. Thus, the materials are well-suited for in vivo use.

    摘要: The preparation and isolation of biodegradable superparamagnetic MR imaging contrast agents for the vascular compartment is described. These aggregates are comprised of individual biodegradable superparamagnetic metal oxide crystals which aggregates have an overall mean diameter less than about 4000 angstroms. The preferred vascular imaging contrast agent is comprised of aggregates of iron oxide crystals having an overall mean diameter less than about 500 angstroms. These contrast agents may be associated with a macromolecular species, which assist, among other things, in the preparation of these extremely small materials, and may be dispersed or dissolved in a physiologically acceptable medium. Preferred media also stabilize the materials against further aggregation even under harsh sterilization conditions. The autoclaved biodegradable superparamagnetic iron oxides of the invention are ideally suited for a pharmaceutical preparation and enjoy several advantages over prior intravascular imaging contrast media including low osmolality, low effective dose requirements, high relaxivities, long blood lifetimes, rapid biodegradability, and versatility with respect to a wide range of applicable MR data acquisition parameters.
