Iodinated contrast media and their adverse reactions.
Cross-use of technology between nuclear medicine and radiology technologists is expanding. The growth of PET/CT and the increasing use of intravenous contrast agents during these procedures bring the nuclear medicine technologist into direct contact with these agents and their associated complications. A basic understanding of the occurrence, risk factors, clinical features, and management of t...
متن کاملAllergic Immediate Hypersensitivity to Iodinated Contrast Media
Background: Immediate hypersensitivity reactions (IHR) to iodinated contrast media (ICM) have traditionally been considered nonallergic; however, the increasingly frequent reporting of positive skin test and basophil activation test results suggests a specifi c allergic mechanism in some patients. Skin tests have been proposed as a useful tool for diagnosis, although their sensitivity and predi...
متن کاملIodinated Contrast Media and Cerebral Hemorrhage After Intravenous Thrombolysis
Background and Purpose—Iodinated contrast is increasingly used in CT perfusion or angiographic examinations in acute stroke. Increased risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) complicating microcatheter contrast injections has recently been reported in the second Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS 2) trial with contrast toxicity potentially contributory. Methods—We reviewed clinical and radi...
متن کاملMyasthenia Gravis following Low-Osmolality Iodinated Contrast Media
We describe the case of 79-year-old man admitted to our general hospital for a 6-week history of progressive dysphagia to solids and liquids associated with weight loss. To reach a diagnosis a total body CT scan with low-osmolality iodinate contrast agent was performed. Two hours later the patient developed an acute respiratory failure requiring orotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation...
متن کاملManagement of hypersensitivity reactions to iodinated contrast media.
All iodinated contrast media (CM) are known to cause both immediate ( £ 1 h) and nonimmediate (>1 h) hypersensitivity reactions. Although for most immediate reactions an allergic hypersensitivity cannot be demonstrated, recent studies indicate that the severe immediate reactions may be IgE-mediated, while most of the nonimmediate exanthematous skin reactions, appear to be T-cell mediated. Patie...
