Interstitial magnetic resonance lymphography: comparative animal study of gadofluorine 8 and gadolinium diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid.

Purpose: We evaluated the usefulness of gadofluorine 8 (G8) and gadolinium diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA) for interstitial magnetic resonance lymphography (MRL).

Method: Phantom imaging studies were conducted with G8 and Gd-DTPA corresponding to 0.1-0.
