Assuming one has a healthy liver etc etc, how often / soon can you get Gad used again?

I am looking to get two MR scans, possibly very close to one another in time. Is there any recomendation as to how long one should wait between two scans with contrast? I have read somewhere that the half life is around 88 minutes.
