Abstract Contrast agents are often used in medical imaging and more specially in x-ray based imaging techniques to enhance image contrast, therefore improve quality of diagnosis..In this work, we synthesized water soluble and biocompatible polyacrilic acid coated bismuth oxide nanoparticles as a CT contrast agent.Their average particles diameter were 1.33±0.1 nm for polyacrilic acid coated Bismuth oxide nanoparticle.The morphology, crystal structure, surface coating and amount of surface coating was confirmed by using HRTEM , XRD, FTIR and TGA respectively.These findings indicate that the nanoparticles reported in this study may be promising CT contrast agents.
