Elucirem™ is the next generation GBCA from Guerbet, designed to reveal high-quality images at half the conventional gadolinium dose1
Reducing the dose of gadolinium with Elucirem™
With a high consumption of GBCAs worldwide and recommendations to reduce the dose of gadolinium, Elucirem™ uses 50% less gadolinium with benefits that go beyond image quality1-9
Ingeniously designed
The unique structure of gadopiclenol has 2 water molecule exchange sites designed to maximize the efficiency of gadolinium (Gd) so only half the conventional dose is needed10
Diagnostic confidence
With its high relaxivity, Elucirem™ is designed to deliver high- quality CNS and body lesion visualization giving you the diagnostic confidence* you would expect but at half the conventional gadolinium dose1,7,8,10
*Diagnostic confidence was a secondary criterion.
High kinetic stability compared to other GBCAs
Elucirem™ (gadopiclenol) has a high kinetic stability with a comparable safety profile to gadobutrol1,7,8,10
Elucirem™ is the next generation GBCA that is manufactured by Guerbet1
