Dialysis and contrast media

European Radiology, 2002
In a previous survey we revealed uncertainty among responders about (a) whether or not to perform hemodialysis in patients with severely reduced renal function who had received contrast medium; and (b) when to perform hemodialysis in patients on regular treatment with hemodialysis or continuous ambulatory dialysis who received contrast medium ...

Porphyrins as contrast media

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 1991
AbstractThe interest in tissue distribution of variously labeled or otherwise detectable natural and synthetic porphyrins and porphyrin derivatives dates back well over 60 years. Although a considerable interest in fluorescent turnor localization and therapy dominates the history of porphyrin biodistribution studies, many investigators have evaluated ...

Contrast Media Deaths

Australasian Radiology, 1984
ABSTRACTNinety‐two deaths resulting from the use of contrast media are described and analyzed together with 228 deaths reported earlier. Of these new deaths, 11 were associated with angiography, 28 with intravenous cholangiography and 53 with urography or C.T. The majority of deaths were associated with cardiac arrest or pulmonary oedema.

Particulate Contrast Media

Investigative Radiology, 1980
Particulate contrast agents, when compared to water-soluble media, offer the advantage of allowing the administration of high doses without creating hypertonicity gradients and ionic imbalances. Since these radiopaque particles are accumulated in the reticuloendothelial system, they could be ideal hepatic CT contrast agents.

Contrast media reactions

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1984
Contrast media reactions may be classified as anaphylactoid, vasomotor, severe or life threatening, and fatal. Anaphylactoid reactions mimic immunoglobulin E-mediated hypersensitivity in that signs may consist of urticaria, angioedema, wheezing, dyspnea, hypotension, or shock. These reactions occur in 2% to 8% of all contrast media infusions. Vasomotor

Contrast media in intussusception

Pediatric Radiology, 1989
Pediatric radiologists in 40 children's hospitals in North America were interviewed to determine their choice of contrast media in the diagnosis and treatment of intussusception. The respondents indicated that barium was utilized in the vast majority of instances.

Understanding Contrast Media

Journal of Infusion Nursing, 2004
More than 10 million radiologic examinations requiring intravascular injection of iodinated contrast media are performed in the United States each year. Iodinated contrast media are considered to be safe diagnostic drugs, and the incidence of adverse reaction is low.

Contrast media safety—An update

European Journal of Radiology, 2011
The value of contrast agents has for long been documented by their common daily use in imaging departments worldwide. In principle, they should be injected and leave the body immediately after use in the same condition or undergo natural metabolism without making any harm to the patient. However, this is not the case.

Contrast media-associated nephrotoxicity

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1996
Contrast media-associated nephrotoxicity (CM-AN) continues to be a common cause of hospital-acquired acute renal failure. This review of CM-AN discusses the pathogenesis, clinical features, incidence, risk factors with an emphasis on pre-existing renal insufficiency and diabetes mellitus, volume of contrast media, low osmolar versus high osmolar ...
