  2. Gadobutrol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadobutrol

    Gadobutrol is a medicinal product used in diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in adults and children. It provides contrast enhancement during cranial, spinal, breast, or other investigations. In the central nervous system, Gadobutrol works by highlighting any areas with disrupted blood brain barrier (BBB) and/or abnormal vascularity.

  3. Gadopiclenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadopiclenol

    Gadopiclenol. Gadopiclenol, sold under the brand name Elucirem among others, is a contrast agent used with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect and visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in the central nervous system and in the body. [2][7] Gadopiclenol is a paramagnetic macrocyclic non-ionic complex of gadolinium.

  4. Gadolinium oxysulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadolinium_oxysulfide

    Gadolinium oxysulfide is a promising luminescent host material, because of its high density (7.32 g/cm 3) and high effective atomic number of Gd. These characteristics lead to a high interaction probability for X-ray radiation. Several synthesis routes have been developed for processing Gd 2 O 2 S phosphors, including: solid state reaction ...

  5. MRI contrast agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_contrast_agent

    Gadolinium (III) containing MRI contrast agents (often termed simply "gado" or "gad") are the most commonly used for enhancement of vessels in MR angiography or for brain tumor enhancement associated with the degradation of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). [3][4] Over 450 million doses have been administered worldwide from 1988 to 2017. [5]

  6. Gadoteric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadoteric_acid

    Gadoteric acid, sold under the brand name Dotarem among others, is a macrocycle -structured gadolinium-based MRI contrast agent (GBCA). It consists of the organic acid DOTA as a chelating agent, and gadolinium (Gd 3+), and is used in form of the meglumine salt (gadoterate meglumine). [4][5] The paramagnetic property of gadoteric acid reduces ...

  7. Gadodiamide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadodiamide

    Gadodiamide is a contrast medium used for cranial and spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and for general MRI of the body after intravenous administration. It provides contrast enhancement and facilitates visualisation of abnormal structures or lesions in various parts of the body including the central nervous system (CNS).

  8. Gallium scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallium_scan

    A gallium scan is a type of nuclear medicine test that uses either a gallium-67 (67 Ga) or gallium-68 (68 Ga) radiopharmaceutical to obtain images of a specific type of tissue, or disease state of tissue. Gallium salts like gallium citrate and gallium nitrate may be used. The form of salt is not important, since it is the freely dissolved ...

  9. Flat-panel detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-panel_detector

    A portable aSi flat-panel detector is used to visualise the movement of liquids in sand cores under high pressure. Flat-panel detectors are a class of solid-state x-ray digital radiography devices similar in principle to the image sensors used in digital photography and video. They are used in both projectional radiography and as an alternative ...
