Perflutren

This medicinal product is for diagnostic use only. OPTISON is a transpulmonary echocardiographic contrast agent for use in patients with suspected or established cardiovascular disease to provide opacification of cardiac chambers, enhance left ventricular endocardial border delineation with resulting improvement in wall motion visualisation.

OPTISON should only be used in patients where the study without contrast enhancement is inconclusive.

This medicinal product is for diagnostic use only. Luminity is an ultrasound contrast-enhancing agent for use in adult patients in whom non-contrast echocardiography was suboptimal (suboptimal is considered to indicate that at least two of six segments in the 4- or 2-chamber view of the ventricular border were not evaluable) and who have suspected or established coronary artery disease, to provide opacification of cardiac chambers and improvement of left ventricular endocardial border delineation at both rest and stress.

DEFINITY (perflutren injectable suspension) is indicated for:  Echocardiography:

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging of cardiac structures (ventricular chambers and endocardial borders) and function (regional wall motion) in adult patients with suboptimal echocardiograms.  Abdominal Ultrasound: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging of the liver and kidneys in adult patients to improve the evaluation of pathology.
