Radiopaque Nanorobots toward Imaging-Guided Applications

Duration: 1.3.2024 — 28.2.2025

Funding resources

On the project

Barium ferrite nanoparticles will be utilized as multifunctional nanorobots in this project. With the intrinsic presence of radiopaque features, the nanorobots can be tracked in real time with X-ray based imaging modalities, while the magnetic features enable the guidence to target areas under the influence of external rotating magnetic fields. Therefore, the outcomes of this project can provide a versatile platform having competence for non-invasive operations in the body, such as targeted thrombolysis.
