Gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) is a recently developed liver-specific contrast agent for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging that is excreted equally via the kidneys and the biliary system. To our knowledge, its effects on T(2)-weighted MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) images have not been explored. Acquisition of the hepatobiliary phase is recommended 20 min after administration of Gd-EOB-DTPA. Examination time cannot be extended if the contrast does not take effect on T(2)-weighted MRCP within 20 min after administration. We attempted to assess the change in signal of T(2)-weighted MRCP by excretion of Gd-EOB-DTPA.
