Contrast Media

Contrast media, also called contrast agents, are used to enhance the blood and perfusion in tissues. This includes iodine based contrast for on computed tomography (CT), gadolinium based agents for MRI and lipid bubble contrast agents used in ultrasound.

This novel agent, based on the essential nutrient manganese, has strong potential as a safer alternative to currently used contrast agents
