Description
Vueway is a gadolinium-based contrast agent, which contains gadopiclenol, a paramagnetic macrocyclic non-ionic complex of gadolinium. The chemical name for gadopiclenol is rac- [(2R,2'Ξ,2''Ξ)-2,2',2''-(3,6,9-triaza-κ 3 N 3 ,N 6 ,N 9 -1(2,6)-pyridina-κN 1 -cyclodecaphane-3,6,9-triyl)tris(5-{[(2Ξ)-2,3-dihydroxypropyl]amino}-5-oxopentanoato-κ 3 O 1 ,O 1 ',O 1 '')(3−)]gadolinium with a molecular weight of 970.11 g/mol and a molecular formula of C 35 H 54 GdN 7 O 15 . Vueway is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, clear, colorless to yellow aqueous solution for intravenous use. Each mL contains 485.1 mg of gadopiclenol (equivalent to 0.5 mmol of gadopiclenol and 78.6 mg of gadolinium) and the following inactive ingredients: 0.404 mg tetraxetan, 1.211 mg trometamol, hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide (for pH adjustment, if needed), and water for injection. The main physicochemical properties of Vueway are provided in Table 2.

Indications
Vueway® is indicated in adult and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect and visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in: the central nervous system (brain, spine, and associated tissues), the body (head and neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and musculoskeletal system). Vueway is a gadolinium-based contrast agent indicated in adult and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect and visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in: the central nervous system (brain, spine, and associated tissues), the body (head and neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and musculoskeletal system). ( 1 )
Dosage
The recommended dose for adult and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older is 0.05 mmol/kg actual body weight (equivalent to 0.1 mL/kg) administered intravenously at approximately 2 mL/sec. ( 2 ) The recommended dose of Vueway for adult and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older is 0.05 mmol/kg actual body weight (equivalent to 0.1 mL/kg) administered intravenously at approximately 2 mL/sec. Use aseptic technique for all handling and administration of Vueway. Visually inspect Vueway for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Do not use the solution if any particulate matter is present or the solution is discolored. Do not mix with other medications because of the potential for chemical incompatibility. Prime intravenous line before use. Administer Vueway as an intravenous bolus injection, manually or by compatible power injector. The recommended injection rate is approximately 2 mL/second. Flush the intravenous line with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP after the administration of Vueway. Contrast MRI can begin immediately following the injection of Vueway. Vial Do not pierce the rubber stopper more than once. Aseptically draw up Vueway into a disposable syringe and use immediately. If solidification occurs in the vial because of exposure to the cold, bring the vial of Vueway to room temperature before use and inspect that the solution is clear, colorless to yellow without any particulate matter and discoloration. Discard any unused portion. Pre-filled syringe Remove the tip cap of the syringe, screw the plunger rod and use immediately. All luer connections should be gently hand tightened without over tightening, to ensure secure connections and to prevent damage to the device. Pre-filled syringes must not be frozen. Frozen pre-filled syringes of Vueway should be discarded. Discard any unused portion. Do not use the Pharmacy Bulk Package for direct infusion. Perform the transfer of Vueway from the Pharmacy Bulk Package in an aseptic work area, such as laminar flow hood, using aseptic technique and suitable transfer device for filling empty syringes. Penetrate the closure only one time. Once the container closure is punctured, do not remove the Pharmacy Bulk Package from the aseptic work area. The Pharmacy Bulk Package is used with an appropriate transfer device for filling empty sterile syringes. Use each individual dose of Vueway promptly following withdrawal from the Pharmacy Bulk Package. Use the contents of the Pharmacy Bulk Package within 24 hours at room temperature after initial puncture. If solidification occurs in the vial because of exposure to the cold, bring the vial of Vueway to room temperature before use and inspect that the solution is clear, colorless to yellow without any particulate matter and discoloration.

Contraindications
Vueway is contraindicated in patients with history of hypersensitivity reactions to Vueway. History of hypersensitivity reactions to Vueway ( 4 )
Warnings
Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious hypersensitivity reactions have occurred with GBCAs. Monitor patients closely for need of emergency cardiorespiratory support. ( 5.3 ) Gadolinium Retention: Gadolinium is retained for months or years in brain, bone, and other organs. ( 5.4 ) Intrathecal administration of GBCAs can cause serious adverse reactions including death, coma, encephalopathy, and seizures. The safety and effectiveness of Vueway have not been established with intrathecal use. Vueway is not approved for intrathecal use [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 )] . GBCAs increase the risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) among patients with impaired elimination of the drugs. Avoid use of Vueway among these patients unless the diagnostic information is essential and not available with non-contrast MRI or other modalities. The GBCA-associated NSF risk appears highest for patients with chronic, severe kidney disease (GFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) as well as patients with acute kidney injury. The risk appears lower for patients with chronic, moderate kidney disease (GFR 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) and little, if any, for patients with chronic, mild kidney disease (GFR 60-89 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ). NSF may result in fatal or debilitating fibrosis affecting the skin, muscle, and internal organs. Report any diagnosis of NSF following Vueway administration to Bracco Diagnostics Inc. (1-800-257-5181) or FDA (1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch). Screen patients for acute kidney injury and other conditions that may reduce renal function. Features of acute kidney injury consist of rapid (over hours to days) and usually reversible decrease in kidney function, commonly in the setting of surgery, severe infection, injury or drug-induced kidney toxicity. Serum creatinine levels and estimated GFR may not reliably assess renal function in the setting of acute kidney injury. For patients at risk for chronically reduced renal function (e.g., age >60 years, diabetes mellitus or chronic hypertension), estimate the GFR through laboratory testing. Among the factors that may increase the risk for NSF are repeated or higher than recommended doses of a GBCA and the degree of renal impairment at the time of exposure. Record the specific GBCA and the dose administered to a patient. For patients at highest risk for NSF, do not exceed the recommended Vueway dose and allow a sufficient period of time for elimination of the drug prior to re-administration. For patients receiving hemodialysis, physicians may consider the prompt initiation of hemodialysis following the administration of a GBCA in order to enhance the contrast agent’s elimination [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . The usefulness of hemodialysis in the prevention of NSF is unknown. With GBCAs, serious hypersensitivity reactions have occurred. In most cases, initial symptoms occurred within minutes of GBCA administration and resolved with prompt emergency treatment. Before Vueway administration, assess all patients for any history of a reaction to contrast media, bronchial asthma and/or allergic disorders. These patients may have an increased risk for a hypersensitivity reaction to Vueway. Vueway is contraindicated in patients with history of hypersensitivity reactions to Vueway [see Contraindications ( 4 )] . Administer Vueway only in situations where trained personnel and therapies are promptly available for the treatment of hypersensitivity reactions, including personnel trained in resuscitation. During and following Vueway administration, observe patients for signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions. Gadolinium is retained for months or years in several organs. The highest concentrations (nanomoles per gram of tissue) have been identified in the bone, followed by other organs (e.g. brain, skin, kidney, liver, and spleen). The duration of retention also varies by tissue and is longest in bone. Linear GBCAs cause more retention than macrocyclic GBCAs. At equivalent doses, gadolinium retention varies among the linear agents with gadodiamide causing greater retention than other linear agents such as gadoxetate disodium and gadobenate dimeglumine. Retention is lowest and similar among the macrocyclic GBCAs such as gadoterate meglumine, gadobutrol, gadoteridol, and gadopiclenol. Consequences of gadolinium retention in the brain have not been established. Pathologic and clinical consequences of GBCA administration and retention in skin and other organs have been established in patients with impaired renal function [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . There are rare reports of pathologic skin changes in patients with normal renal function. Adverse events involving multiple organ systems have been reported in patients with normal renal function without an established causal link to gadolinium. While clinical consequences of gadolinium retention have not been established in patients with normal renal function, certain patients might be at higher risk. These include patients requiring multiple lifetime doses, pregnant and pediatric patients, and patients with inflammatory conditions. Consider the retention characteristics of the agent when choosing a GBCA for these patients. Minimize repetitive GBCA imaging studies, particularly closely spaced studies, when possible. In patients with chronically reduced renal function, acute kidney injury requiring dialysis has occurred with the use of GBCAs. The risk of acute kidney injury may increase with increasing dose of the contrast agent. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Injection site reactions such as injection site pain have been reported in the clinical studies with Vueway [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Extravasation during Vueway administration may result in tissue irritation [see Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.2 )] . Ensure catheter and venous patency before the injection of Vueway. As with any GBCA, Vueway may impair the visualization of lesions seen on non-contrast MRI. Therefore, caution should be exercised when Vueway MRI scans are interpreted without a companion non-contrast MRI scan.
Adverse reactions
The following serious adverse reactions are discussed elsewhere in labeling:
Use in_specific_populations
Pregnancy: Use only if imaging is essential during pregnancy and cannot be delayed. ( 8.1 ) Risk Summary There are no available data on Vueway use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. GBCAs cross the human placenta and result in fetal exposure and gadolinium retention. The available human data on GBCA exposure during pregnancy and adverse fetal outcomes are limited and inconclusive (see Data ) . In animal reproduction studies, there were no adverse developmental effects observed in rats or rabbits with intravenous administration of Vueway during organogenesis (see Data ) . Because of the potential risks of gadolinium to the fetus, use Vueway only if imaging is essential during pregnancy and cannot be delayed. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population(s) are unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20% respectively. Data Human Data Contrast enhancement is visualized in the placenta and fetal tissues after maternal GBCA administration. Cohort studies and case reports on exposure to GBCAs during pregnancy have not reported a clear association between GBCAs and adverse effects in the exposed neonates. However, a retrospective cohort study comparing pregnant women who had a GBCA MRI to pregnant women who did not have an MRI reported a higher occurrence of stillbirths and neonatal deaths in the group receiving GBCA MRI. Limitations of this study include a lack of comparison with non-contrast MRI and lack of information about the maternal indication for MRI. Overall, these data preclude a reliable evaluation of the potential risk of adverse fetal outcomes with the use of GBCAs in pregnancy. Animal Data Gadolinium Retention: GBCAs administered to pregnant non-human primates (0.1 mmol/kg on gestational days 85 and 135) result in measurable gadolinium concentration in the offspring in bone, brain, skin, liver, kidney, and spleen for at least 7 months. GBCAs administered to pregnant mice (2 mmol/kg daily on gestational days 16 through 19) result in measurable gadolinium concentrations in the pups in bone, brain, kidney, liver, blood, muscle, and spleen at one-month postnatal age. Reproductive Toxicology: Animal reproduction studies conducted with gadopiclenol showed some signs of maternal toxicity in rats at 10 mmol/kg and rabbits at 5 mmol/kg (corresponding to 52 times and 57 times the recommended human dose, respectively). This maternal toxicity was characterized in both species by swelling, decreased activity, and lower gestation weight gain and food consumption. No effect on embryo-fetal development was observed in rats at 10 mmol/kg (corresponding to 52 times the recommended human dose). In rabbits, a lower mean fetal body weight was observed at 5 mmol/kg (corresponding to 57 times the recommended human dose) and this was attributed as a consequence of the lower gestation weight gain. Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of gadopiclenol in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. However, published lactation data on other GBCAs indicate that 0.01% to 0.04% of the maternal gadolinium dose is excreted in breast milk. Additionally, there is limited GBCA gastrointestinal absorption in the breast-fed infant. Gadopiclenol is present in rat milk. When a drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will be present in human milk (see Data ) . The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for Vueway and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from Vueway or from the underlying maternal condition. Data In lactating rats receiving single intravenous injection of [ 153 Gd]-gadopiclenol, 0.3% and 0.2% of the total administered radioactivity was transferred to the pups via maternal milk at 6 hours and 24 hours after administration, respectively. Furthermore, in nursing rat pups, oral absorption of gadopiclenol was 3.6%. The safety and effectiveness of Vueway for use with MRI to detect and visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in the CNS (brain, spine, and associated tissues), and the body (head and neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and musculoskeletal system) have been established in pediatric patients aged 2 years and older. Use of Vueway in this age group is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled studies in adults with additional pharmacokinetic and safety data from an open-label, uncontrolled, multicenter, single dose study of Vueway (0.05 mmol/kg) in 80 pediatric patients aged 2 to 17 years. The 80 patients consisted of 60 patients who underwent a CNS MRI and 20 patients who underwent a body MRI [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . The safety and effectiveness of Vueway have not been established in pediatric patients younger than 2 years of age. Of the total number of Vueway-treated patients in clinical studies, 270 (26%) patients were 65 years of age and over, while 62 (6%) patients were 75 years of age and over. No overall differences in safety or efficacy were observed between these subjects and younger subjects. This drug is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of adverse reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, it may be useful to monitor renal function. In patients with renal impairment, the exposure of gadopiclenol is increased compared to patients with normal renal function. This may increase the risk of adverse reactions such as nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF). Avoid use of GBCAs among these patients unless the diagnostic information is essential and not available with non-contrast MRI or other modalities. No dose adjustment of Vueway is recommended for patients with renal impairment. Vueway can be removed from the body by hemodialysis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 , 5.4 , 5.5 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .

Clinical pharmacology
Gadopiclenol is a paramagnetic molecule (macrocyclic non-ionic complex of gadolinium) that develops a magnetic moment when placed in a magnetic field. The magnetic moment alters the relaxation rates of water protons in its vicinity in the body, leading to an increase in signal intensity (brightness) of tissues. In MRI, visualization of normal and pathological tissue depends in part on variations in the radiofrequency signal intensity that occur with: differences in proton density differences of the spin-lattice or longitudinal relaxation times (T 1 ) differences in the spin-spin or transverse relaxation time (T 2 ). When placed in a magnetic field (patient in MRI machine), gadopiclenol shortens the T 1 and T 2 relaxation times in targeted tissues. The extent to which a contrast agent can affect the relaxation rate of tissue water (1/T 1 or 1/T 2 ) is termed relaxivity (r 1 or r 2 ). The relaxivity of GBCAs is presented in Table 3 . Table 3. Relaxivity (r 1 ) of GBCAs in Human Plasma/Serum at 1.5 T and 37°C Gadolinium-Chelate r 1 (L.mmol -1 .s -1 ) Gadobenic acid 6.3 Gadobutrol 5.2 Gadodiamide 4.3 Gadopentetic acid 4.1 Gadopiclenol 12.8 Gadoteric acid 3.6 Gadoteridol 4.1 Gadoxetic acid 6.9 Cardiac Electrophysiology At 6 times the recommended dosage in adult patients, gadopiclenol does not prolong the QT interval to any clinically relevant extent. The C max and AUC inf of gadopiclenol increased proportionally over a dosage range from 0.025 mmol/kg to 0.3 mmol/kg (0.5 times to 6 times the recommended dosage). At the recommended dose, the mean (CV%) C max and AUC inf were 525 (13%) µg/mL and 569 (18%) µg·h/mL, respectively. Distribution After intravenous administration of Vueway, gadopiclenol is distributed in the extracellular fluids. The mean (CV%) volume of distribution of gadopiclenol at steady state is 13 (13%) L. Protein binding of gadopiclenol is ≤ 1.8% at clinically relevant concentrations. Following GBCA administration, gadolinium is present for months or years in brain, bone, skin, and other organs [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . It is unknown whether the recommended dose of Vueway results in similar or different levels of gadolinium retention relative to those of other approved macrocyclic GBCAs at their recommended doses. Elimination The mean (CV%) elimination half-life (t 1/2 ) of gadopiclenol is 1.5 (14%) hour. The mean (CV%) total body clearance (CL) and renal clearance (CLr) of gadopiclenol are 100 (9.5%) mL/min and 81 (35%) mL/min, respectively.  Metabolism  Gadopiclenol is not metabolized.  Excretion  Gadopiclenol is mainly eliminated through the kidneys by glomerular filtration. Approximately 98% of the dose was recovered in urine within 48 hours after administration. Specific Populations No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of gadopiclenol were observed based on sex. Pediatric Patients The pharmacokinetics of gadopiclenol for pediatric patients (2 to 17 years of age) were within range to those of adults (> 18 years of age) [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 )] . The pharmacokinetic parameters (median [range]) of gadopiclenol in pediatric patients are presented in Table 4. Table 4.

In patients with severely impaired renal function about 84% of the administered Vueway was recovered in urine within 5 days. In patients with eGFR < 15 mL/min, hemodialysis effectively removed gadopiclenol from plasma as the percentage of decrease in blood concentrations was 95 to 98% at the end of the first hemodialysis session and 100% after the third hemodialysis session [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 ), Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6 )] .
Nonclinical toxicology
Carcinogenesis No carcinogenicity studies of gadopiclenol were performed. Mutagenesis Gadopiclenol did not demonstrate mutagenic potential in in vitro bacterial reverse mutation assays (Ames test), in an in vitro chromosome aberration assay in Chinese hamster ovary cells nor in an in vivo rat micronucleus assay. Impairment of Fertility Gadopiclenol had no effect on fertility and general reproductive performance of male and female rats when given at dose up to 10 mmol/kg (corresponding to 62 times the recommended human dose). Local intolerance reactions, including slight to moderate erythema and edema, were observed after perivenous injection in rabbits suggesting the possibility of local irritation if the contrast medium leaks around the veins in a clinical setting [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )] .
Clinical studies
The safety and effectiveness of Vueway for lesion visualization were evaluated in two prospective, double blind, randomized, crossover clinical studies. Study 1 (NCT03996447) was performed in adults with known or highly suspected CNS lesions with focal areas of disruption of the blood-brain barrier. Study 2 (NCT03986138) was performed in adults with suspected enhancing abnormalities in at least one body region among the head and neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and musculoskeletal system. In each study, patients received both Vueway 0.05 mmol/kg and gadobutrol 0.1 mmol/kg (as an active comparator) in random order separated by 2 days to 14 days. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed before and after administration of each contrast agent. Pre-contrast and paired (consisting of both pre-contrast and post-contrast images for the same drug) image sets were independently evaluated by three central readers who were blinded to identity of the contrast agent. Readers scored up to three lesions per patient for border delineation, internal morphology, and contrast enhancement, each on a scale from 1 to 4. The total number of lesions was also reported. An additional independent central reader performed lesion tracking to allow matching of lesions between pre-contrast and paired images. The analysis compared the patient-level average score for matching lesions for each visualization parameter between pre-contrast and paired image sets. Study 1 included 256 patients with known or highly suspected CNS lesion(s). Among the enrolled patients, 239 had assessable pre-contrast and paired images with at least one matching lesion for at least one reader. These patients had a mean age of 57 years (range: 18 years to 84 years), 52% were female, and 83% were White. All three blinded readers’ evaluations of paired pre-contrast plus post-contrast images and pre-contrast images alone for all lesion visualization criteria, the pre-specified co-primary efficacy endpoints, are presented in Table 6.

The mixed models based on the full analysis set (N=239) include lesion visualization factor as dependent variable, MRI modality (Pre-contrast and Paired MRI) as fixed factors, and patient as a random factor. *p<0.0001 for all rows   n LS Mean (SE) 95% CI difference   Paired Pre Difference Border delineation Reader 1 227 3.90 (0.02) 2.08 (0.02) 1.82 (0.03) (1.76, 1.88)   Reader 2 229 3.64 (0.04) 1.74 (0.04) 1.90 (0.05) (1.81, 2.00)   Reader 3 202 3.97 (0.03) 2.61 (0.03) 1.36 (0.04) (1.29, 1.44)   Internal morphology Reader 1 227 3.92 (0.03) 1.66 (0.03) 2.26 (0.03) (2.20, 2.33)   Reader 2 229 3.65 (0.03) 1.88 (0.03) 1.77 (0.04) (1.69, 1.85)   Reader 3 202 3.97 (0.04) 2.01 (0.04) 1.96 (0.05) (1.85, 2.06)   Degree of contrast enhancement Reader 1 227 3.77 (0.03) 1.00 (0.03) 2.77 (0.04) (2.69, 2.85)   Reader 2 229 3.58 (0.03) 1.00 (0.03) 2.58 (0.05) (2.49, 2.67)   Reader 3 202 3.90 (0.02) 1.00 (0.02) 2.90 (0.03) (2.84, 2.95)   Gadopiclenol lesion visualization scores and number of lesions identified per patient were similar to those for gadobutrol. Study 2 included 304 patients presenting with known or suspected enhancing abnormality(ies) and/or lesion(s) in at least one region among the head and neck, musculoskeletal system including extremities, and body including thorax, abdomen, and pelvis. Among the enrolled patients, 278 had assessable pre-contrast and paired images with at least one matching lesion for at least one reader. These patients had a mean age of 57 years (range: 21 years to 86 years), 59% were female, and 71% were White. Three readers assessed images of the head and neck, three other readers assessed images of the musculoskeletal system, and another three readers assessed other areas collectively referred to as the body (thorax, abdomen, and pelvis). Lesion visualization scores by reader in each anatomic region at patient-level as supportive analyses are summarized in Table 7. Table 7. Patient-Level Body Lesion Visualization Scores by Reader and Anatomic Region, Paired vs. Pre-contrast in Patients Receiving Vueway 0.05 mmol/kg Intravenously LS: Least Squares; SE: Standard Error; CI: Confidence Interval. Only matching lesions are considered. The mixed models based on the full analysis set (N=278) include lesion visualization factor as a dependent variable, patient as a random factor, and MRI modality (Pre-contrast and Paired MRI), body regions, and MRI body regions as fixed factors.   n LS Mean (SE) 95% CI difference Paired Pre-contrast Difference Head & Neck Border delineation Reader 1 15 3.71 (0.10) 2.13 (0.10) 1.58 (0.14) (1.30, 1.86) Reader 2 19 3.53 (0.18) 2.11 (0.18) 1.42 (0.18) (1.06, 1.78) Reader 3 13 3.92 (0.13) 2.85 (0.13) 1.08 (0.13) (0.82, 1.33) Internal morphology Reader 1 15 3.80 (0.07) 1.87 (0.07) 1.93 (0.10) (1.74, 2.12) Reader 2 19 3.74 (0.14) 2.05 (0.14) 1.68 (0.16) (1.37, 2.00) Reader 3 13 3.92 (0.12) 2.54 (0.12) 1.38 (0.14) (1.10, 1.67) Degree of contrast enhancement Reader 1 15 3.60 (0.11) 1.00 (0.11) 2.60 (0.16) (2.29, 2.91) Reader 2 19 3.68 (0.16) 1.00 (0.16) 2.68 (0.22) (2.22, 3.15) Reader 3 13 3.92 (0.11) 1.00 (0.11) 2.92 (0.15) (2.61, 3.24) Musculoskeletal system (including extremities) Border delineation Reader 1 17 3.00 (0.10) 2.06 (0.10) 0.94 (0.13) (0.68, 1.20) Reader 2 17 2.68 (0.20) 2.44 (0.20) 0.24 (0.19) (-0.15, 0.62) Reader 3 21 2.81 (0.10) 2.05 (0.10) 0.76 (0.10) (0.56, 0.96) Internal morphology Reader 1 17 3.00 (0.07) 2.00 (0.07) 1.00 (0.09) (0.82, 1.18) Reader 2 17 3.94 (0.15) 2.35 (0.15) 1.59 (0.17) (1.25, 1.92) Reader 3 21 2.90 (0.09) 2.05 (0.09) 0.86 (0.11) (0.64, 1.08) Degree of contrast enhancement Reader 1 17 2.82 (0.10) 1.00 (0.10) 1.82 (0.15) (1.53, 2.12) Reader 2 17 3.33 (0.17) 1.00 (0.17) 2.33 (0.24) (1.847, 2.82) Reader 3 21 3.06 (0.08) 1.00 (0.08) 2.06 (0.12) (1.82, 2.31) Body (thorax, abdomen, pelvis) Border delineation Reader 1 219 3.86 (0.03) 2.28 (0.03) 1.57 (0.04) (1.50, 1.64) Reader 2 194 3.54 (0.06) 3.15 (0.06) 0.40 (0.06) (0.29, 0.51) Reader 3 228 3.53 (0.03) 1.69 (0.03) 1.84 (0.03) (1.78, 1.90) Internal morphology Reader 1 219 3.86 (0.02) 2.00 (0.02) 1.87 (0.03) (1.82, 1.92) Reader 2 194 3.74 (0.05) 3.41 (0.05) 0.33 (0.05) (0.23, 0.43) Reader 3 228 3.78 (0.03) 1.60 (0.03) 2.17 (0.03) (2.11, 2.24) Degree of contrast enhancement Reader 1 219 3.71 (0.03) 1.00 (0.03) 2.71 (0.04) (2.63, 2.79) Reader 2 194 2.69 (0.05) 1.00 (0.05) 1.69 (0.07) (1.54, 1.83) Reader 3 228 3.33 (0.03) 1.00 (0.03) 2.33 (0.44) (2.25, 2.40) Gadopiclenol lesion visualization scores and number of lesions identified per patient were similar to those for gadobutrol.
