The use of iron oxide nanoparticles in MRI is leading development of image acquisition and analysis techniques to accurately localize uptake and persistence of such contrast agents. Detailed localization of the SPION and its contrast to other structures that are also hypointense is important. We explore the advantages of high field and high resolution MRI to assess inflammation, macrophage uptake and bone erosion in an antigen-induced arthritis (AIA) model.
