This technology includes a gene-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reporter platform that harnesses adeno-associated virus (AAV) delivery of the metal transporter Zip14 to create image contrast wherever the gene is expressed. By driving Zip14 from cell-specific promoters, investigators obtain robust, long-lasting signal changes on standard clinical MRI sequences (e.g., MPRAGE and GRE), enabling real-time visualization of living cells and their gene-expression patterns.
