ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of a double action MR contrast agent——gadobenate dimeglumine (Gd-BOPTA) for focal liver lesion and biliary system disease.Methods Articles about Gd-BOPTA in CNKI and PubMed for the past few years were searched and the value of Gd-BOPTA in the diagnosis of focal liver lesion and biliary system disease was summarized.Results For focal liver lesion,Gd-BOPTA not only can reveal blood supply of the lesion,but also reveal the hepatocellular functional status in the lesion.For biliary system,biliary excretion of Gd-BOPTA can be used to evaluate the anatomic structure of bile duct,function of gallbladder and biliary system disease.Conclusions Gd-BOPTA has an important value in the diagnosis of focal liver lesion and biliary system disease.Gd-BOPTA may have wider applications in the future.
