Influence of the core size calculated by TEM on relaxivity normalized by the square of the saturation magnetization. Colorful dots correspond to the nanoparticles studied on this work and compared to others works (orange triangles [15], purple square [29], and star [4]) and compared to commercial one Resovist® (purple circle); the solid line corresponds to the theoretical values for the motional averaging regime (MAR). For the calculations was used for all samples but the Resovist, which used .
