| Abstract |
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a lethal disease marked by infiltration of cancerous cells into the surrounding normal brain. The dire outcome of GBM patients stems in part from the limitations of current neuroimaging methods. Notably, early cancer detection methodologies are lacking, without the ability to identify aggressive, metastatic tumor cells. We propose a novel approach for tumor detection using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) based on imaging specific tumor tropism of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) labeled with micron-sized iron oxide particles (MPIOs). |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 March 2012.
All research outputs
#20,657,128
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Imaging and Biology
#621
of 837 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#132,348
of 169,065 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Imaging and Biology
#6
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 837 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.0. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 169,065 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
