Gadopiclenol |
Gadopiclenol is a paramagnetic agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The contrast-enhancing effect is mediated by gadopiclenol which is a macrocyclic non-ionic complex of gadolinium, the active moiety which enhances the relaxation rates of water protons in its vicinity in the body, leading to an increase in signal intensity (brightness) of tissues. |
