Nanoemulsion of iodinated fatty acids for CT imaging

摘要

The present invention is an iodinated CT contrast agent made of fatty acid derivatives for non-invasive visualization and quantification of brown adipose tissue and / or beige adipose tissue (BAT), or imaging of a subject's heart and / or liver. Regarding. Advantageously, this contrast agent should be taken orally, which is a breakthrough in CT imaging. Imaging resolution by CT is significantly enhanced compared to PET.
