Abstract

Abstract : Quantitative zinc determination by nuclear and MR imaging using two Ln 3+ complexes, including purified 165 Er 3+, indispensable for metal ion quantification. Abstract : We propose quantitative assessment of zinc by combining nuclear and MR imaging. We use a cocktail of a Gd 3+ -complex providing a Zn 2+ -dependent MRI response and its 165 Er 3+ analogue allowing for concentration assessment. 165 Er is readily obtained in a cyclotron and purified, which is indispensable for successful quantification of metal ions.
