Title:
AMPHIPATIC POLYCARBOXYLIC CHELATES AND COMPLEXES WITH PARAMAGNETIC METALS AS MRI CONTRAST AGENTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000030688
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Substituted polycarboxylic ligand molecules and corresponding metal complexes of said ligands, preferably paramagnetic metals complexes for generating responses in the field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The paramagnetic complexes of the polycarboxylic ligands possess advantageous tensioactive properties and are useful as MRI contrast media in formulations for investigating the blood pool.
