Phase IV, Double Blind, Multi-Center, Randomized, Two-Arm Crossover Study to Compare 0.1 mmol/kg of MultiHance With 0.1 mmol/kg of Dotarem and 0.05 mmol/kg of MultiHance With 0.1 mmol/kg of Dotarem in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the Brain
This study aims at a comparison between MultiHance at a dose of 0.1 mmol/kg and 0.05 mmol/kg
and Dotarem at a dose of 0.1 mmol/kg in brain tumor patients to show superiority of
MultiHance.
and Dotarem at a dose of 0.1 mmol/kg in brain tumor patients to show superiority of
MultiHance.
