Brief description The aim of this project is to develop targeted imaging agents that seek out specific markers for various states of cardiovascular disease. These agents would provide a method for detecting the presence and level of atherosclerosis, fatty tissue build up in the vessel wall. The nanoparticles may provide a unique opportunity to detect very early plaques, the vulnerability of existing plaques and difficult-to-diagnose vessel blockages such as clots in lung vessels (pulmonary embolism).
