Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of rats with neurodegenerative disease injected by mesenchymal stem cells labeled with magnetic nanoparticles.

Notes: In both MRI images (sagittal A and horizontal B) a dark area, identified by a white arrow, is present. This indicates a large concentration of SPION-labeled mesenchymal stem cells.
