Imarx Pharmaceutical Corp. - Tucson AZ
International Classification:
A61B 5055
US Classification:
424 936
Abstract:
Methods of providing an image of the gastrointestinal region of a patient and diagnosing the presence of any tumorous tissue in that region using contrast media comprising a combination of at least one polyphosphorylated aliphatic or polyphosphorylated alicyclic compound and at least one paramagnetic ion, wherein the aliphatic and alicyclic compounds comprise at least five carbon atoms, is described. Also described are diagnostic kits for gastrointestinal imaging which include the subject contrast media.

Liposoluble Compounds Useful As Magnetic Resonance Imaging Agents
US Patent:
5312617, May 17, 1994
Filed:
May 22, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/887290

DeKang Shen - Tucson AZ
DeKang Shen - Tucson AZ
International Classification:
A61B 5055, C07C23300
US Classification:
424 9
Abstract:
Novel complexes of paramagnetic ions and compounds bearing long acyl chains have been synthesized as magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents. These novel liposoluble contrast agents may be administered alone, or with lipids, suspending agents or other additives. The lipids may be in the form of liposomes, micelles or lipid emulsions. The contrast agents of the invention have particular use in magnetic resonance imaging of the liver, blood pool and reticuloendothelial system.
