Ferumoxtran-10 belongs to the Ultra Small Particles of Iron Oxide (USPIO) class of contrast agents and induces delayed tumor enhancement in brain tumors, reflecting the trapping of iron oxide particles by the macrophages and activated microglia. The aim of the study was to compare Ferumoxtran-10 contrast enhancement in four human high-grade glioma xenograft models (TCG2, TCG3, TCG4, and U87) with different growing profiles.
