Abstract

The present study demonstrates that highly water-dispersed graphene nanoribbons dispersed by carboxyphenylated substituents and conjugated to aquated Gd³⁺ ions can serve as a high-performance contrast agent (CA) for applications in T₁- and T₂-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with relaxivity (r_1,2) values outperforming currently-available clinical CAs by up to 16 times for r₁ and 21 times for r₂.
