The only book available that focuses on gadolinium-based gadobutrol (Gadovist 10 mmol/ml [Schering AG]), Cardiovascular MRI offers:

• highly illustrated sections containing 226 MR scans, 4 color photographs, 28 artworks, and 8 tables
• case studies accompanied by the imaging protocols and the imaging parameters an entire chapter on the peripheral vasculature

This highly-illustrated text is based on the extensive experience with CE-MRA and perfusion studies by a team of Czech cardiologists and radiologists. They have chosen a practical rather than theoretical approach to apprize the reader of what they need to do when performing MR angiography or perfusion studies with high-concentration contrast agents.
