  • Magnetic resonance imaging agents for in vivo labeling and detection of amyloid deposits
    Patent number: 7029655
    Abstract: The invention relates to a novel class of magnetic resonance imaging agents that can cross the blood brain barrier and provide accurate magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, especially magnetic resonance images of amyloid deposits associated with Alzheimer's disease.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 4, 2001
    Date of Patent: April 18, 2006
    Assignee: California Institute of Technology
    Inventors: Matthew J. Allen, Scott Fraser, Russell E. Jacobs, Thomas J. Meade
  • Bifunctional detection agents
    Patent number: 6521209
    Abstract: The invention provides bifunctional detection agents comprising optical dyes covalently linked to at least one magnetic resonance image (MRI) contrast agent. These agents may include a linker, which may be either a coupling moiety or a polymer.
    Type: Grant
