Polymetallic molecular complexes used as contrast agents in magnetic image resonance.

Abstract

[EN]According to the invention, a novel type of contrast agent having a superparamagnetic behaviour at ambient temperature is synthesised for use as a contrast agent in magnetic image resonance. The invention relates to the use of a polymetallic molecular complex as a contrast agent which has a superparamagnetic behaviour at ambient temperature and which reduces the longitudinal relaxation time (T1). At ambient temperature, said type of compounds behaves in a similar manner to a paramagnet, i.e. the resulting magnetisation fluctuates with time at a characteristic frequency that depends on temperature. In the case of superparamagnetic compounds, the resulting magnetic moment is greater than for paramagnetic compounds and, as a result, superparamagnetic compounds reduce the relaxation time of the hydrogen nuclei of water molecules more effectively. [ES] Se sintetiza un nuevo tipo de agente de contraste de comportarmiento superparamagnético a temperatura ambiente para ser usado como agente de contraste en RMI y se describe el uso de un complejo molecular polimetálico como agente de contraste que presenta comportamiento superparamagnético a temperatura ambiente y disminuye el tiempo de relajación longitudinal (T1). A temperatura ambiente, este tipo de compuestos se comporta de forma similar a un paramagneto, es decir la magnetización resultante fluctúa con el tiempo con una frecuencia característica que depende de la temperatura. En el caso de los compuestos superparamagnéticos el momento magnético resultante es más grande que para los compuestos paramagnéticos por lo que los compuestos superparamagnéticos disminuirán de forma más efectiva los tiempos de relajación de los núcleos de hidrógeno de las moléculas de aguas.
