How does Nanotechnology improve imaging resolution?
Nanotechnology improves imaging resolution through the use of nanoprobes that can interact with biological systems at the molecular level. Techniques like super-resolution microscopy employ nanoparticles to break the diffraction limit of light, allowing for visualization of structures at the nanometer scale. Additionally, magnetic nanoparticles are used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to enhance contrast, leading to clearer and more detailed images.
