MR appearance of extravasated gadolinium contrast medium.

چکیده
This case illustrates that a large zone of signal void can be produced on short relaxation time MR images when gadopentate dimeglumine is injected through an infiltrated intravenous catheter. The authors consider the physics behind this paradoxical decrease in signal intensity where there are high concentrations of gadopentate dimeglumine.

Synthesis and Application of New Gadolinium-Porphyrins as Potential MR Imaging Contrast Agents for Cancer Detection in Nude Mice
Two new potential magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents, Gd-hematoporphyrin (Gd-H) and Gd-tetra-carboranylmethoxyphenyl-porphyrin (Gd TCP), were synthesized and applied to nude mice with human melanoma (MM 138) xenografts. These agents showed a high relaxivity because of their greater potential to coordinate water molecules. The reduction of T1 relaxation times of 16 and 21% was observed i...
متن کاملRelevance between MRI longitudinal relaxation rate and gadolinium concentration in Gd3+/GO/alginate nanocomposite
Objective(s): Relevance between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) relaxation rate and concentration of magnetic nanoparticles determines the capability of a nanomaterial to provide MRI contrast. In the present study, alginate was conjugated to gadolinium/graphene oxide nanocomposite to form gadolinium/graphene oxide/alginate nanocomposite, aiming to investigate its effect on the relevance betwee...
متن کاملMeasuring diffusion of solutes into intervertebral disks with MR imaging and paramagnetic contrast medium.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Experimental studies have shown that solutes diffuse more slowly into degenerated intervertebral disks than into normal disks. A noninvasive clinical study of diffusion in intervertebral disks is not generally available. Our purpose was to evaluate contrast-enhanced MR images to study diffusion in normal and degenerated lumbar intervertebral disks. METHODS The change in...
متن کاملComparison of Renal Damage by Iodinated Contrast or Gadolinium in an Acute Renal Failure Rat Model Based on Serum Creatinine Levels and Apoptosis Degree
This study was undertaken to compare renal damage, as determined by serum creatinine and degree of apoptosis, caused by iodinated contrast or gadolinium in an acute renal failure (ARF) rat model. Rats were divided into three groups; controls (n=3), a CT contrast medium group (n=9), and an MR contrast medium group (n=9). The CT and MR groups were further subdivided into three groups, namely, low...
متن کاملSynthesis and biological evaluation of a novel Glucosylated Derivative of Gadolinium Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid for Tumor Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Cancer detection in early stage using a powerful and noninvasive tool is of high global interest. In this experiment, a small-molecular-weight glucose based derivative of Gd3+-1-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl) diethylene tri amine penta acetic acid (Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG) as a novel potential MR imaging contrast agents was synthesized. Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG was synthesized with reacting of Glucosamine...
