Sponsor's own description

The main objective was to prospectively explore the potential for long-term retention of Gadolinium (Gd) in bones in patients who have received a single dose of Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA) or multiple doses of the same GBCA, with moderate or severe renal impairment or stable normal renal function (eGFR \> 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) at the time of GBCA injection.
