A brand name for ferumoxide (same as Endorem™)
Feridex® is a sterile aqueous colloid of superparamagnetic iron oxide associated with dextran for intravenous administration as a MRI contrast medium for the detection of liver lesions that are associated with an alteration in the RES.
Feridex® is taken up by macrophages, found only in healthy liver cells but not in most tumors. Tissues such as metastases, primary liver cancer, cysts and various benign tumors, adenomas and hyperplasia retain their native signal intensity, so the contrast between normal and abnormal tissue is increased. Feridex® is a black to reddish-brown aqueous colloid.
See also Ferumoxide.

In November 2008, AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. decided to discontinue the manufacturing of Feridex.
