109. Positive Contrast Cerebral Vintriculography Using Water-Soluble Media

Positive contrast cerebral ventriculography using water-soluble media. Clinical evaluation of 102 procedures using methyglucamine iothalamate 60 per cent.

Removal of water-soluble contrast media after cervical myelography using cervical injection.

The development of thin-section high-resolution computed tomography (CT) has resulted in increased use of postmyelogram CT for the diagnosis of cervical disk disease. Complications of myelography appear to be related to the dose and the amount of intracranial spillage. Postmyelogram and preCT removal of water-soluble contrast material decreases the total dose of contrast material without compro...

Neurotoxicity of nonionic iodinated water-soluble contrast media in myelography: experimental study.

The neurotoxicity of four contrast media--iotrol, iopamidol, metrizamide, and ioglunide--was studied by subarachnoid injection in 14 rabbits implanted with four cerebral electrodes. Thirty-four recordings and quantitative analyses were carried out of spontaneous electrical brain activity, seizure activity, and visual- and somatosensory-evoked potentials. The quantitative study of the electroenc...

Diagnostic image quality of hysterosalpingography: ionic versus non ionic water soluble iodinated contrast media

OBJECTIVE To compare the diagnostic image quality between three different water soluble iodinated contrast media in hysterosalpingography (HSG). MATERIAL AND METHOD In a prospective randomised study of 204 patients, the diagnostic quality of images obtained after hysterosalpingography were evaluated using Iopramide (106 patients) and Ioxaglate (98 patients). 114 patients who had undergone HSG...

Evaluation of time lapse for establishing distal tubal occlusion diagnosis during hysterosalpingography procedure performed by using water soluble contrast media.

BACKGROUND Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is the most frequently used diagnostic measure for simultaneously determining uterine abnormalities and tubal status among subfertile women. Despite several broader advantages such as availability and increased experience, the subjectivity involved during administration of the HSG procedure itself, and necessary imaging review, decreases the reliability an...
