Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Researchers are looking for a better way to help people with any known or suspected problems (except brain or spinal cord-related problems) scheduled for a "contrast-enhanced" Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

MRI is used by doctors to create detailed images of the inside of the body to identify health problems. Sometimes doctors need to inject contrast agent into a patient's vein to perform a so called "contrast-enhanced" MRI (CE-MRI). Such CE-MRI examinations may support doctors to identify certain health problems or improve the evaluation.

The contrast agents commonly used in MRI are gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). GBCAs contain a "rare earth" element called gadolinium (Gd). Gadoquatrane is a new contrast agent under development with a lower amount of Gd needed per CE-MRI.

The main purpose of this study is to learn whether CE-MRI scans with gadoquatrane work better than MRI scans without the use of a contrast agent (GBCA). The researchers will compare the ability to detect known or suspected problems (except brain or spinal cord-related problems) with gadoquatrane-MRI scans to plain-MRI scans without the use of a contrast agent.

The participants will undergo 2 MRI scans, one with gadoquatrane and one with currently used GBCA. Both contrast agents will be injected into the vein.

Each participant will be in the study for between 6 and 42 days with up to 7 doctor visits.

At the start or during the study, the doctors and their study team will:

* take blood and urine samples
* do physical examinations
* check blood pressure and heart rate
* review the MRI scans obtained in the study and decide on the diagnosis
* ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having.

An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatments.

Intervention Model

CROSSOVER

The site staff in charge of the preparation and administration of study intervention will be unblinded and will not be involved in any evaluation of safety and efficacy. The site staff in charge of conducting all other study procedures as per the schedule of activities (SoA) will remain blinded to the study intervention administered.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Participant must be \>= 18 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent form
* Participants with a clinical indication for a contrast-enhanced MRI (including magnetic resonance angiography \[MRA\]), with any approved standard of care macrocyclic GBCA with proven efficacy, safety and tolerability in clinical routine CE-MRI/MRA (gadobutrol, gadoterate meglumine/ gadoteric acid or gadoteridol) that is used at the site for the indication, with known or suspected pathology of any body region, e.g. head and neck (except central nervous system \[CNS\]), thorax (including e.g. breast, heart, chest wall), abdomen (including e.g. liver, kidney, pancreas), pelvis (including e.g. prostate, uterus, ovaries), extremities (including upper and lower.
* Participants who can undergo study-related procedures, including 2 contrast-enhanced MRI examinations (one with gadoquatrane and one with a comparator macrocyclic GBCA), as per participant and Investigator's judgement
* Contraceptive use by female participants should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and one of the following conditions applies: Is a woman of nonchildbearing potential (WONCBP) OR Is a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and using an acceptable contraceptive method during the study intervention period (at a minimum of 24 hours after the last dose of study intervention).

Exclusion Criteria
