What Are Some Key Techniques in Nanotechnology for Imaging?
Fluorescence Imaging: Uses fluorescently labeled nanoparticles to tag specific molecules within cells and tissues. This allows researchers to observe cellular processes in real-time. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): Nanoparticles such as iron oxide nanoparticles are used as contrast agents to enhance the quality of MRI scans. Photoacoustic Imaging: Combines laser-induced ultrasound with nanoparticles that absorb light to provide high-resolution images of tissues.
