In this work we demonstrate that iron-oxide labeled
Dendritic Cells (DC), loaded with antigens, can be
effectively tracked as they home in on the lymph nodes
using MRI. We also correlate therapeutic response to
successful targeting of DC as measured with MRI. The
potential of the methods described can provide
additional tools to develop DC based cancer vaccines.
