Ted -



It may have been Prohance (gadoteridol).  This is a

non-radioactive gadolinium compound that works like an xray

contrast agent for MRIs by decreasing the relaxation times in the

target tissue.  If you want more information, just do a search on

Prohance or gadoteridol.

technician, but I did not.



Thanks.
