Liver vessel enhancement by gd-bopta and gd-eob-dtpa: a comparison in healthy volunteers

Abstract: At the dosage used in this study, Gd-BOPTA yields higher maximum enhancement of the hepatic artery, portal vein, and middle hepatic vein during the arterial and the portal venous phase and during the delayed phases than Gd-EOB-DTPA does, whereas there is no difference in liver parenchymal enhancement between the two contrast agents.

“…According to a recent study that directly compared the diagnostic performance of two contrast agents on the same patients, when focusing on the diagnosis of FNH, Gd-BOPTA is superior to Gd-EOB-DTPA due to significantly higher lesion contrast ratios in the arterial and late venous phases [12]. Indeed, the arterial enhancement of vessels and lesions in Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI is lower than that in Gd-BOPTA-enhanced MRI [37]. However, Gd-EOB-DTPA has HBP occurring faster than it does in Gd-BOPTA (10-30 minutes versus 60-120 minutes after injection of contrast agents), making Gd-EOB-DTPA more convenient to use [12].…”

“…When compared to Gd-BOPTA, at standard doses Gd-EOB-DTPA demonstrates lower enhancement in normal vasculature and solid abdominal organs [9] and lower dynamic enhancement of the liver vasculature [10]. Frydrychowicz et al compared dynamic post contrast hepatic vasculature signal to noise ratio (SNR) with the higher (non-FDA approved) Gd-EOB-DTPA dose of 0.05 mmol/kg to the standard dose of Gd-BOPTA.…”

“…The smaller volume shortens the duration of arterial enhancement and reduces signal intensity [21]. Therefore, some institutions use higher doses of 0.05 mmol/kg [18,22,23]. Other institutions use a fixed dose of 10 ml equaling the package size, resulting in varying concentrations of gadoxetate disodium, depending on the patient's body weight [6, 8 -10, 12, 14].…”
