## Abstract Combining either paramagnetic (gadolinium chelatea) or superparamagnetic (ferrite) contrast agents with polymers such as polyethylene glycol or cellulose, or with simple sugars such as dextrose, results in mixtures that exhibit improved T1 and/or T2 relaxivity compared with that of the
## Abstract We describe a wellβtolerated blood pool contrast agent with extended reclrculatory halfβlife based on paramagnetic polymerized liposomes (PPLs). PPLs were constructed from a new type of polymerizable lipid molecule that has a derivative of gadopentetate dimeghimine as the hydrophilic he
## Abstract Since approval of the first magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agent was granted in 1988, there has been remarkable growth in the utilization of intravenous gadolinium (Gd)βbased agents. Currently it is estimated that nearly half of all MR studies performed are contrastβenhanced. Despite
