MultiHance®: High-relaxivity GBCA
labelled as a liver-specific contrast agent†
A premium liver-specific GBCA: Dual properties of high relaxivity and hepatocyte-specific uptake help ensure accurate liver diagnostics in both dynamic and delayed imaging at a reduced gadolinium dose (0.05mmol/kg) compared to macrocyclic agents.1-3
†MultiHance® approved indications and/or recommended dose can vary from country to country, e.g. in EU (EMA) labelled as a liver-specific agent, in US (FDA) as a general use GBCA.
ProHance®: A well-established macrocyclic GBCA
with proven stability and safety‡4-6
A trusted multi-use macrocyclic GBCA for adults and pediatric patients, offering high stability,6 a proven safety profile and established diagnostic efficacy.7-9 Indicated for MRI of the CNS, including children of any age (from term neonates).9,10
‡ProHance® approved indications can vary from country to country.
Benzol side chain allows hepatocellular uptake of gadobenate dimeglumine to provide additional information of hepatocyte functionality.2
Nonionic and macrocyclic, with unique hydroxyl-containing arm to increase stability.11
360° MRI offering to address all your needs1,9
Advanced safety features
designed to promote patient-centric care
Tilt lockout feature minimizes risk of air embolisms only when the injector head is tilted in the down position.
The LED illuminating handle indicates when contrast and saline are in motion.
The eGFR calculator is intended to assist in determining whether the patient’s renal function is consistent with the safe administration of intravenous (IV) contrast.*
eGFR=estimated glomerular filtration rate.
eGFR is not intended to act as a substitute for a physician's diagnosis of conditions, which may preclude the administration of IV contrast or the patient’s ability to accept the procedure.
Pop-up messages alert staff to overpressure during keep vein open (KVO).
