Magnetosomes Extracted from Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense as Theranostic Agents in an Experimental Model of Glioblastoma

Figure 1

Experimental protocol timeline. Magnetosomes were extracted and injected in tumors under MRI monitoring; same scans were used to measure the pretreatment size of the tumor. Thermal maps and local temperature variations were measured during hyperthermic treatment. Upon completion of thermotherapy, immediately prior to histology, a new MRI session was conducted to measure the final volume of tumors.
