Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adfm201470275-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>On page 6613, W. Bu, J. Shi, and co‐workers present the first example of T₂‐weighted MR imaging of the sensitizer (Yb³⁺) and activator (Ho³⁺) in UCNPs, which can also be simultaneously used for UCL and CT imaging, thus enabling the high performance multimodal MRI/UCL/CT imaging in single UCNPs. Impressively, the remarkable T₂‐MRI capability of the Ho³⁺‐doped UCNPs favors the accurate early diagnosis of brain tumor. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh2cn0r6gg" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
