Used as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to enhance the clarity of internal body structures. It improves the visualization of abnormalities such as tumors, inflammation, and blood vessel disorders in the brain, spine, and other organs. The compound increases the contrast in MRI images by altering the magnetic properties of nearby water molecules, allowing for better differentiation between healthy and diseased tissues. Commonly administered intravenously, it helps in the accurate diagnosis and assessment of various medical conditions.
