Documented Uses

• ... Gadopentetate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA, Magnevist..) became commercially available in 1988 and is currently marketed in 101 countries. ... Gd-DTPA has been used in more than 45 million magnetic resonance imaging procedures since 1988 and is currently used globally in more than 5 million applications annually.
• Injectable contrast medium for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
• Typical contrast agents are gadolinium-based compounds that possess a higher linear attenuation coefficient than soft tissues. /Contrast agents/
• Magnevist injection is indicated for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in adults, and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) to visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in the brain (intracranial lesions), spine and associated tissues. Magnevist injection has been shown to facilitate visualization of intracranial lesions including but not limited to tumors. /Included in US product labeling/
• Magnevist injection is indicated for use with MRI in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) to facilitate the visualization of lesions with abnormal vascularity in the head and neck. /Included in US product labeling/
• Magnevist injection is indicated for use in MRI in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) to facilitate the visualization of lesions with abnormal vascularity in the body. /Included in US product labeling/
