Prolonged Gadolinium Retention After MRI Imaging
Withdrawn before enrolling · Phase 4
Conditions studied: Heavy Metal Toxicity
In brief
The researchers propose to investigate the prevalence of gadolinium in the urine of patients with a prior gadolinium-enhanced MRI before and after a edetate calcium disodium challenge. Moreover, will investigate if there is any correlation of gadolinium urine levels with levels of endogenous (e.g zinc) and xenobiotic metals.
