Re: Gadolinium - okay to use in MRIs? As a general statement, the MRI without gadolinium is probably acceptable. There are times when gadolinium is important (looking at the spinal cord itself), but if looking for bone disease is the primary reason, no gadolinium is generally acceptable.

Elmina Castle. Elmina Castle is situated opposite Fort St. Jago in the little town with the same name in Ghana. Elmina Castle was founded in 1482 by the Portugese to protect the Gold Coast they discovered in 1471. It was completed in 1486.
