MPI is a new medical imaging technology developed by scientists at Philips. It 
uses the magnetic properties of iron-oxide nanoparticles to produce 
three-dimensional images of the concentration of nanoparticles injected into the
bloodstream. The potential of the technology for medical and industrial 
research and, ultimately, patient care, was demonstrated in a publication which 
appeared in the March issue of Physics in Medicine and Biology in 2009 (Volume 
54, issue 5). It was shown that MPI technology can be used to produce real-time 
images that accurately capture the activity in the cardiovascular system of a 
mouse.
