title: The Use of Contrast Agents in Clinical and Preclinical PET-MR Imaging.
abstract: PET-MR imaging is an exciting field of research for imaging chemists that allows for innovative approaches such as the use of cocktails of agents or bimodal contrast. In this review, we provide an overview of some of the work in the in preclinical and clinical PET-MR imaging to date, and discuss limitations in the design and applications of these materials.
