NMR imaging of liver using Gd(III)-phytate complex as contrast agent was evaluated in rats. The 31P NMR spectrum of Gd(III)-phytate complex is presented and discussed as well as the spin-lattice relaxation times. Rat liver images obtained at 10, 15, and 20 min after i.v. injection of Gd(III)-phytate (10 mg/kg) showed marked contrast enhancement attributable to the Gd(III) complex.

Abstract
NMR imaging of liver using Gd(III)-phytate complex as contrast agent was evaluated in rats. The 31P NMR spectrum of Gd(III)-phytate complex is presented and discussed as well as the spin-lattice relaxation times. Rat liver images obtained at 10, 15, and 20 min after i.v. injection of Gd(III)-phytate (10 mg/kg) showed marked contrast enhancement attributable to the Gd(III) complex.File allegati a questo prodotto
