Gadobenate is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent used to help create a clear picture of the body during MRI scans. MRI scans are a special kind of diagnostic procedure. They use magnets and computers to create images or “pictures” of certain areas inside the body. Unlike x-rays, they do not involve ionizing radiation. Gadobenate is a gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA).

Gadobenate is given by injection before an MRI scan to help find problems in the brain, spine, and other parts of your body.

Gadobenate is to be used only by or under the direct supervision of a doctor.
