Water-Mediated Nanostructures for Enhanced MRI: Impact of Water Dynamics on Relaxometric Properties of Gd-DTPA.

abstract：:Rationale: The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma is rising worldwide. It is predicted that nearly half of the early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (E-HCC) patients will develop recurrence. Dysregulated pH, a hallmark of E-HCC, is correlated with poor prognosis. The acidic microenvironment has been shown to promote...
