Abstract:
A variety of shortcomings are associated with most currently used gastrointestinal contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Artifacts resulting from peristalsis and other motions in the abdominal region are produced by many positive contrast agents (which increase signal intensity). Although this is not a problem for negative contrast agents (which decrease signal intensity), some negative contrast agents produce magnetic susceptibility artifacts that are especially pronounced at hi...     »
