Page/Page column 93-94, (2008/06/13)
The present invention relates to a novel class of paramagnetic ion-based contrast agents of formula (I), wherein a chelating backbone moiety is highly functionalized by the presence of one or more polyhdroxylated chain, that show a pharmacokinetic profile analogous to that of the commonly used T1-general extravascular agents (NSA) but are further characterized by a higher relaxivity.
