The vasculature produces strong endogenous contrast in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Here Desai et al. report genetically encoded imaging probes derived from the vasodilator, calcitonin gene-related peptide, which allows visualization of molecular events via haemodynamic changes in optical imaging or MRI.
