Optical and MRI Multimodal Tracing of Stem Cells In Vivo
Mol Imaging. 2023 Dec 19;2023:4223485. doi: 10.1155/2023/4223485. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTStem cell therapy has shown great clinical potential in oncology, injury, inflammation, and cardiovascular disease. However, due to the technical limitations of the in vivo visualization of transplanted stem cells, the therapeutic mechanisms and biosafety of stem cells in vivo are poorly defined, which limits the speed of clinical translation. The commonly used methods for the in vivo tracing of stem cells currently include optical imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine imaging. However, nuclear medicine imag...
