Magnevist® Injection Enhanced MRA Compared to Non Contrast MRA for the Detection of Structural Abnormalities of the Aortic Arch and Cerebral Branches

Cardiovascular Abnormalities Clinical Trial

Official title: Multicenter, Open-label Study of the Safety (Open-label) and Efficacy (Open-label and Blinded Reader) of a Single Administration of Approximately 0.1 mmol/kg of Magnevist® Injection-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Arteriography (MRA) and 2-dimensional-time-of-flight (2D-TOF) MRA in Patients With Known or Suspected Disease of the Aortic Arch and Cerebral Branches Who Are Undergoing MRA of These Vessels With Intra-arterial Digital Subtraction Arteriography (i.a. DSA) as the Standard of Reference.

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to look at the safety (what are the side effects) and efficacy (how well does it work) of Magnevist (the study drug) used for MRI of the aortic arch and cerebral branches. The results will be compared to the results of MRI taken without Magnevist, and with the results of your X-ray angiography.
