Next generation, high relaxivity gadolinium MRI agents.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has evolved into one of the most powerful techniques in diagnostic clinical medicine and biomedical research by enabling the acquisition of high resolution, three-dimensional images of the distribution of water in vivo (1). The strong expansion of medical MRI has prompted the development of a new class of pharmacological products, called contrast agents. These a...
متن کاملGadolinium(III) 1,2-hydroxypyridonate-based complexes: toward MRI contrast agents of high relaxivity.
Prospective gadolinium(III) MRI contrast agent precursors [Gd-TREN-1,2-HOPO] (1) [TREN-1,2-HOPO = tris[(1-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-6-carboxamido)ethyl]amine] and [Gd-TREN-bis(Me-3,2-HOPO)-1,2-HOPO] (2) have been synthesized and characterized by relaxometric measurements. The water proton relaxivity values of 1 and 2 (20 MHz and 25 degrees C) are 9.5 and 9.3 mM(-)(1)s(-)(1), respectivel...
متن کاملRelaxivity of gadolinium complexes detected by atomic magnetometry.
Laser atomic magnetometry is a portable and low-cost yet highly sensitive method for low magnetic field detection. In this work, the atomic magnetometer was used in a remote-detection geometry to measure the relaxivity of aqueous gadolinium-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid Gd(DTPA) at the Earth's magnetic field (40 μT). The measured relaxivity of 9.7±2.0 s(-1) mM(-1) is consistent with field...
متن کاملAre All Gadolinium-based Contrast Agents Similar? The Importance of High Stability, High Relaxivity and High Concentration
Since the original conception and introduction of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) in the 1980s, many such contrast agents have been approved for use in contrast-enhanced MRI. These contrast agents have been used extensively in a large range of indications, particularly central nervous system examinations, as well as neurodegenerative diseases and tumour...
متن کاملNmr Surface Relaxivity and Diffusion Effects in Grain Packs
The surface relaxivity ρ is an important and fundamental parameter for the interpretation of T2 distributions. To use laboratory data in the field, one must know the various effects that will influence ρ, such as temperature and mineralogy. Recent works suggest that ρ value is fluctuating more than expected and yields errors in water saturation estimation. We studied low field (2.2 MHz proton) ...
