How MI Scan Injection works

Gadopentetic acid belongs to the class of drugs known as contrast agents. It enhances the image contrast of the internal body structures and improves the visibility due to the increase in their signal and intensity when placed in strong magnetic fields and radio waves used in MRI scanners.

Frequently asked questions

MI Scan 469mg Injection is a contrast agent used during magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. It helps improve the visibility of internal organs, blood vessels, and tissues, making it easier for doctors to diagnose conditions like tumors, inflammation, or blood flow issues.
Gadopentetic dimeglumine is the form of gadopentetic acid that is typically used in clinical practice as an intravenous contrast agent for MRI. Gadopentetic acid is the generic name for a gadolinium-based MRI contrast agent, while gadopentetic dimeglumine is a specific salt form of gadopentetic acid. While there is a slight difference between both, there is not any difference in the way both works and the purpose it serves.
No, MI Scan 469mg Injection should not be used in people with severe kidney problems, acute kidney injury, or infants under 4 weeks old, due to the risk of a serious condition called nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF).

The most serious risks of MI Scan 469mg Injection include NSF in patients with poor kidney function, severe allergic reactions such as difficulty breathing or anaphylactic shock, and temporary kidney failure in those with preexisting kidney issues.

MI Scan 469mg Injection starts working almost immediately after injection, enhancing the MRI images during the scan. Its effects last for the duration of the procedure.
