Gadopiclenol, sold under the brand name Elucirem, is a contrast agent used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect lesions with abnormal blood vessels.[1] It may be used in those who are at least two years old.[1] It is given by injection into a vein.[1]

Common side effects include pain at the site of injection, headache, nausea, and dizziness.[1] Other side effects may include nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, allergic reactions, and retention of gadolinium.[1] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[1] It is a paramagnetic macrocyclic non-ionic complex of gadolinium.[1]

Gadopiclenol was approved for medical use in the United States in 2022.[1] As of 2022 it is being looked at the approval agency in Europe.[3]

Medical use

Dosage

It is generally given at a dose of 0.1 mL/kg.[1]
