Description

Magnetic resonance contrast agents are paramagnetic species which catalyze the relaxation of water protons thus allowing images to be obtained faster with higher signal intensity. Relaxivity, PH influence on relaxivity lethal dose for 50% of the test animal and stability of various gadolinium chelates are examined
