Abstract
An enteral contrast medium useful for proton nuclear spin tomography contains at least one physiologically compatible paramagnetic compound in combination with a physiologically compatible, osmotically active substance, as well as a physiologically compatible base/buffer or buffer mixture with a pH value of 3 to 8, and, optionally, also a viscosity-raising material, all dissolved or suspended in water. It is excellently suitable for enhancing contrast in imaging, e.g., of the gastrointestinal tract by nuclear spin tomography.
