In this study, we investigated whether PEGylated fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) could detect the inflammatory areas in experimentally induced autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) rats with in vivo cardiac MRI. In addition, we examined the MNPs possibility if we apply to clinical research by exploring the inflammatory dilation and therapeutic effect.
