A Study Called GUS to Understand How Much of the Contrast Agent Gadavist is Used and How Much is Wasted in Two Different Containers (Single-dose Vials and Imaging Bulk Packages ) in a Real-world Setting
This is an observational study, in which data associated with the wastage with the use of Gadavist single-dose vials, as compared to the wastage associated with the use of the Gadavist imaging bulk packages (IBP) used for contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using Gadavist will be compared. MRI is a medical technique, which creates detailed images of the organs, soft tissues and structures inside the body. Combination of MRI with a "dye" that is injected into the vein (called contrast media, like Gadavist) creates what is called a contrast-enhanced MRI that enables clearer pictures of the body and helps doctors to see problems better than an MRI without contrast media. The drug Gadavist (also called gadobutrol) is a gadolinium-based contrast media for diagnostic use in MRI, which is given as an injection into the vein to improve the quality of the MRI pictures. Gadavist is already approved for several indications including imaging of brain and spinal cord, breast imaging, imaging of blood vessels, and diagnoses of heart disease. It helps doctors for example to detect: * areas with disrupted blood brain barrier (BBB), which is crucial to protect the brain from toxic components and pathogens (germs, viruses, disease-causing agents) * abnormal blood vessels in certain blood vessels * presence and size of breast cancer * heart disease The dosing of Gadavist is weight-based and currently available in single-use vials, which are associated with wastage. To reduce wastage and wastage associated costs, multi-dose vials, also called imaging bulk packages (IBP) were developed, which are already approved in the USA since January 2021. The aim of this study is to understand how much of the contrast agent Gadavist is used and how much is wasted in two different containers (single-dose vials and Imaging Bulk Packages (IBP)) in a real-world setting. To do this, researchers will review information collected regarding the amount of Gadavist used for patients underg
