• Patient must be scheduled for CE-MRI with Gadovist at the recommended dose(s) in one of the approved indications (for details see Appendix 1 Patient Information Leaflet of Gadovist”)
• Patient must fulfill criteria for moderate (eGFR 30 – 59 mL/min/1.73 m2) to severe (eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment.
• Patients on chronic dialysis (both hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis) will be automatically assigned to the severe” group and will not specifically require eGFR determination
• Patient must sign study-specific informed consent.
Patients are to be imaged according to the MR imaging protocols in the participating institutions, which include that physicians are to comply with the general precaution measures of MR imaging.
