Carotid Artery Brain Aneurysm Model: In Vivo Molecular Enzyme-specific MR Imaging of Active Inflammation in a Pilot Study(1)

PURPOSE: To demonstrate the feasibility of using a myeloperoxidase (MPO)-specific paramagnetic magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agent to identify active inflammation in an animal model of common carotid artery (CCA) aneurysm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All animal experiments were approved by the institu...
