Gd Labeled AlbuminInfoSheet: - Contrast Agents - 
Intro, Overview, 
Characteristics, 
Types of, 
etc.
 
Macromolecular Gd labeled albumins are a new class of contrast agents with a wide range of use e.g., MR angiography, breast MRI, perfusion MRI, Lung perfusion, etc.
Marketed gadolinium-based albumin-bound contrast media are e.g., MultiHance®, and Vasovist™; other prototypes are in development. Malignant tumors often show an increased uptake and metabolism of plasma proteins, especially albumin. Contrast agents with large molecules are delivered to all tissues, but only accumulate in those with leaky vessels by tumor capillaries (tumor neovessels). MRI tumor perfusion studies with Gd labeled albumin can show the success of tumor therapy by quantitative decrease in MR signal of the malignant tissue after therapy compared to before. In addition, the study of tumor sensitivity to a therapy with drug-labeled albumins seems possible.
After renal transplantation, MRI may diagnose albuminuria caused by glomerular disease with an albumin-bound blood pool contrast agent

Postprocessing
 
MR images can be manipulated for evaluation in various ways. Postprocessing includes: Subtraction, addition, rotation, inversion, multiplanar reconstruction (MPR), maximum intensity projection (MIP), etc.
Subtraction is particularly useful in contrast enhanced MRI examinations (for example breast MRI, brain MRI). The pre contrast images are subtracted from the images after an injection of contrast agents (sometimes also called dye) for a better tumor detection.

www.hitachimed.com/products/altaire.asp From Hitachi Medical Systems America, Inc.;
the AIRIS made its debut in 1995. Hitachi followed up with the AIRIS II system, which has proven equally successfully. 'All told, Hitachi has installed more than 1,000 MRI systems in the U.S., holding more than 17 percent of the total U.S. MRI installed base, and more than half of the installed base of open MR systems,' says Antonio Garcia, Frost and Sullivan industry research analyst. Now Altaire employs a blend of innovative Hitachi features called VOSIā„¢ technology, optimizing each sub-system's performance in concert with the other sub-systems, to give the seamless mix of high-field performance and the patient comfort, especially for claustrophobic patients, of open MR systems.
