Background: Breakthrough hypersensitivity reactions (HRs) to gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) occur in 40% of patients despite corticosteroid premedication. Other strategies to reduce HRs are not well studied.
Objective: The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate HR rate to GBCA among patients with history of HR to GBCA, empirically given an alternative GBCA prior to repeat administration.

Purpose: To investigate and compare the MR features between hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) subtypes in China, including preliminary observations on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI).
Methods: Thirty-six patients with 39 pathologically proven HCAs underwent gadopentetate dimeglumine enhanced MRI. The morphological and imaging features on T1, T2-weighted, dynamic-enhanced imaging and DWI were retrospectively evaluated and compared between four HCA subtypes, using Kruskal-Wallis test, Fisher's exact test and Dunn-Bonferroni post hoc test.

We evaluated the efficacy of pineapple juice with gadopentetate dimeglumine as a negative oral contrast agent for magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). Images were obtained before and after the intake of a negative oral contrast agent. Images obtained from six different areas of the biliary tree were analyzed by three different radiologists, who were blind to the exams; scores regarding image quality were given to each area.

This study was designed to assess the feasibility of intrathecal gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance cisternography (MRC) for the evaluation of the presence or absence of communication of cranial arachnoid cysts with the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pathways of the central nervous system (CNS). This prospective study included 20 patients (12 males and 8 females) with a mean age of 37 years, who had, as a group, 22 intracranial arachnoid cysts identified on prior CT and/or MR examinations. Routine pre-contrast cranial MR imaging was followed by the intrathecal administration of 0.
