Gadolinium oxide

Gadolinium oxide is a compound composed of the element gadolinium combined with oxygen. It’s a metal oxide used mainly in medical imaging, where gadolinium enhances MRI scans by acting as a contrast agent, making tissues easier to see. Because gadolinium is magnetic, it improves image clarity without being harmful in small doses. Gadolinium oxide is also useful in electronics, lasers, and phosphors for displays. It’s a stable, crystalline material with unique magnetic properties, making it valuable across various high-tech applications.
