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 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.

Safe Use of Contrast Media: What the Radiologist Needs to Know.

Radiographics, 2015
Iodinated and gadolinium-based contrast media are used on a daily basis in most radiology practices. These agents often are essential to providing accurate diagnoses, and are nearly always safe and effective when administered correctly.

Skin tests in patients with hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast media: a meta‐analysis

Allergy. European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2015
Patients with a previous history of hypersensitivity reaction (HSR) to iodinated contrast media (ICM) are at high risk of the development of HSR to ICM.

Optimizing Contrast Media Injection Protocols in State-of-the Art Computed Tomographic Angiography

Investigative Radiology, 2015
ObjectiveVery short acquisition times and the increasing use of low-kilovolt protocols in standard computed tomographic (CT) angiography (CTA) examinations demand modifications in the contrast media (CM) injection regimen.

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.

Comparison of Magnetic Properties of MRI Contrast Media Solutions at Different Magnetic Field Strengths

Investigative Radiology, 2005
Rationale and Objectives:To characterize and compare commercially available contrast media (CM) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in terms of their relaxivity at magnetic field strengths ranging from 0.47 T to 4.7 T at physiological temperatures in ...

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.
