Gadoxetic acid is a gadolinium-based MRI contrast agent.[4] Its salt, gadoxetate disodium, is marketed as Primovist in Europe and Eovist in the United States by Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals.[2][5]

Medical uses

[edit]

It is used to increase the T1 signal intensity while imaging the liver lesions such as benign cysts, hemangioma, and liver cancer. It is excreted into bile by active secretion.[6]

Pharmacokinetics

[edit]

In those with end-stage renal failure, the clearance rate is only 17% with terminal half-life of 12 times longer than those with normal renal function.[6]
