The Potential of 5-aminolevulinic Acid as a Contrast Agent in MR Imaging: Challenges and Opportunities
Nowadays, 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) plays an influential role in the detection of malignant tumors as a photodynamic diagnosis tool. Nevertheless, an outlook regarding 5-ALA applicability in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently emerged. Many studies confirmed the impact of 5-ALA on prom...
