32 patients with abdominal tumours or inflammatory abdominal diseases were examined by MRI (0.5 T) prior to and after oral administration of gadolinium-DTPA (Gd-DTPA). T1- and T2-weighted sequences were employed. 10 ml/kg body weight of a Gd-DTPA formulation were administered (1.0 mmol/l, 15 g mannitol/l). Gd-DTPA provided markedly hyperintensive opacification of the gastrointestinal tract. In 19 of 32 studies Gd-DTPA-enhanced scans showed improved delineation of abdominal pathologies. In most cases Gd-DTPA-enhanced T1-weighted multislice gradient echo images provided the most useful diagnostic result. Meteorism and diarrhea were recorded in 13 patients.
