The Efficacy of Gadobenate Dimeglumine (Gd-BOPTA) at 3 Tesla in Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Abstract

Gd-BOPTA provides significantly higher CNR at 3 T compared with 1.5 T and also demonstrates significantly higher CNR when compared with a standard Gd-chelate at 3 T. As a result of transient protein binding, Gd-BOPTA may be superior to standard gadolinium chelates in neurologic imaging at 3 T.
