(A) Clot to blood CNR for the aged thrombus comparing pre-injection to post injection for EP-2104R quantifies the considerable thrombus enhancement, while no increase in CNR is seen after Gd-DTPA injection. (B) Clot to blood CNR for the fresh mural thrombus caused by endothelial damage induced during catheter delivery of the aged clot. The CNR values are significantly higher post injection of EP-2104R as compared to pre-injection and Gd-DTPA injection. (C) Ex vivo Gd analysis of thrombus and blood for both EP-2104R and Gd-DTPA administration. The Gd concentration in the clot is ~18 times higher than in the blood for EP-2104R; however, the values for clot and blood are similar in the case of Gd-DTPA injection. Repeated measures ANOVA with post hoc Student-Newman-Keuls test: * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.005.
