Scientists found that when packaged in a nanoparticle, CT contrast agents, such as iodine, increased the absorption of X-rays by nearly an order of magnitude, thus improving sensitivity for imaging and disease characterization and potentially reducing toxicity compared with conventional contrast agents.
