Pre-biopsy MRIs can help doctors diagnose and treat prostate cancer more accurately. Here’s when you should get one.

To produce sharper images of organs through magnetic resonance imaging, doctors and researchers often inject patients with so-called contrast agents. The most commonly used agents contain the metal ...

Depending on the thermodynamic complex stability, addition of the trivalent metal salts may cause transmetallation or recomplexing in the MRI contrast agents, resulting in the release of toxic Gd 3+ ...

A medical innovation that has significantly advanced medical treatments, magnetic resonance imaging has helped doctors see inside the body. MRI scans are a non-invasive and relatively safe procedure.

Experts have provided new guidance in the use of contrast agents during MRI scans. Emerging research suggests gadolinium-based contrast agents, injected in a patient's veins to brighten tissues in MRI ...

Background Predicting progression to aortic valve replacement (AVR) in moderate aortic stenosis (AS) is challenging. This ...

People with a history of allergic-like reactions to iodinated contrast media, which is used in a variety of X-ray-based procedures, such as CT and angiography, are susceptible to similar reactions ...

The volume of contrast media used for diagnostic imaging, including iodinated and gadolinium agents, has increased in recent years.

Adding a contrast-enhancing agent to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) significantly improves image quality and allows radiologists who interpret MRI scans to pick up subtle anatomic details and ...
