Spectral triangulation molecular contrast optical coherence tomography with indocyanine green as the contrast agent [PDF]
, 2004 We report a new molecular contrast optical coherence tomography (MCOCT) implementation that profiles the contrast agent distribution in a sample by measuring the agent's spectral differential absorption.

Clinical utility of gadobenate dimeglumine in contrast-enhanced MRI of the breast: a review [PDF]
, 2015 Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the technique with the highest sensitivity for breast cancer detection. Gadobenate dimeglumine is a gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) that is specifically approved in Europe for breast MRI and ...

Current Protocols in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2002 AbstractContrast agents in general are exogeneous substances employed to alter natural tissue contrast. The motivation behind the use of contrast agents in MR imaging is to further enhance contrast between normal and diseased tissue types and indicate functionality of an organ.

Protein-based molecular contrast optical coherence tomography with phytochrome as the contrast agent [PDF]
, 2004 We report the use of phytochrome A (phyA), a plant protein that can reversibly switch between two states with different absorption maxima (at 660 and 730 nm), as a contrast agent for molecular contrast optical coherence tomography (MCOCT).

Nano-Sized Ultrasound Contrast Agent: Salting-Out Method
Molecular Imaging, 2010 Tumor imaging by ultrasound is greatly enhanced by the use of ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs), stabilized, gas-filled bodies. They are generally less than 7 μm to pass freely through the capillary bed.

Factive and nonfactive mental state attribution [PDF]
, 2017 Factive mental states, such as knowing or being aware, can only link an agent to the truth; by contrast, nonfactive states, such as believing or thinking, can link an agent to either truths or falsehoods.

Contrast-associated acute kidney injury : does it really exist, and if so, what to do about it? [PDF]
, 2019 For decades, when contrast agents are administrated, physicians have been concerned because of the risk of inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). Recent literature questions the existence of AKI induced by contrast, but animal studies clearly showed harmful
