Findings may lead to better individualized cell therapy treatments for people with certain autoimmune conditions or cancers
Scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they used a form of magnetic imaging to track cell therapy injections commonly used to treat certain autoimmune diseases and cancers.
The findings, from a study of mice, add to a growing body of evidence that magnetic particle imaging (MPI), a new technique that allows scientists to visualize therapeutic cells as they inject them, may eventually help researchers personalize cell therapy treatments for individual patients. The National Institutes of Health-funded study was published May 6 in Science Advances.
