Pharmacokinetics of Gd(DO3A-Lys), a macrocyclic gadolinium based MRI contrast agent functionalized with a lysine derivative, was studied in Wistar rats. Kinetic data was fitted using a two compartment model and revealed Gd(DO3A-Lys) to have a distribution half-life, t1/2(alpha), of 1.3 min, an elimi...
