Gadolinium-DTPA, the first paramagnetic contrast agent available for Magnetic Resonance Imaging, has added tremendously to the information obtainable from MRI examination of the brain and spine. With the advent of improved hardware and software, contrast enhanced MR Imaging is now increasingly applied to other organ systems. However, an overview of Gadolinium-DTPA enhanced MRI of the body has not yet been produced. The purpose of this monograph is to make
