Abstract
The present invention relates to the preparation and use of nanoparticles, in particular paramagnetic nanoparticles, and their use as contrast enhancers for NMR-based methods of examination. A significant increase in contrast (e.g. from 100 to 200%) takes place according to the invention. An aqueous or organic synthesis leads to small nanoparticles which have a narrow size distribution and can also be advantageously used for many other industrial applications.
