In vivo imaging of controlled release in the
gastrointestinal tract is of major importance to assess
its efficacy. In this study, we establish a dual modal
imaging platform by combining 19F MRI and CT using 19FDG
and BaSO4 as contrast agent respectively which can
provides information on the location, integrity and
release of material from the capsule into the
gastrointestinal tract of small animal models for the
first time.
