Orbitography with water-soluble contrast media

Myelography in the lumbar region with water-soluble contrast medium.

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...

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...

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...

Organ dose in kidney imaging with contrast media

Introduction:Intravenous urography (IVU) test includes high number of images and extended imaging size. These make IVU as a diagnostic method with high absorbed doses by sensitive organs such as intestine and gonads in pelvic-abdominal area. In this study absorbed doses of pelvic-abdomen sensitive organs such as Adrenal, Bladder, Colon and Gonads in IVU test. <stron...
