Anaphylactoid reactions to iodinated contrast material

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1978
A review of the literature involving anaphylactoid reactions to iodinated contrast material (ICM) suggests that the reactions are nonantibody-mediated but that a complex activation of inflammatory mediators occurs. Histamine release and/or complement activation has been demonstrated in both in vitro and in vivo experimental systems.

Current Radiographic Iodinated Contrast Agents

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 2017
Millions of radiologic examinations requiring the use of iodinated contrast are performed yearly in North America. Triiodobenzoic acid, the contrast agent molecule currently in use, is a benzene ring covalently bonded to the 3 iodine atoms. Iodinated contrast media can be divided in 4 categories: ionic monomers, ionic dimers, nonionic monomer, and ...

Iodinated contrast agents in myasthenia gravis

Neurology, 1987
Administration of intravenous iodinated contrast agents has been reported to cause increased weakness in myasthenia gravis (MG) patients. We reviewed the records of 136 patients with MG who had at least one radiologic procedure involving intravenously administered contrast media.

Anaphylactoid Reactions to Iodinated Contrast Media

Academic Radiology, 2002
The mechanisms of immediate reactions to iodinated contrast media (ICM) are currently debated. Most of them and especially the minor and mild ones are being attributed to a direct, non-specific effect of the molecule (1), and a smaller number of severe cases, are suspected to be anaphylactic, IgE-depending events (2).

Evaluation of Safety Guidelines on the Use of Iodinated Contrast Material: Conundrum Continued

Investigative Radiology, 2018
Objectives Recently, safety guidelines for the use of intravascular iodinated contrast material have been updated, and the recommended threshold for giving prophylaxis to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has been reduced to estimated glomerular

Adverse reactions to iodinated contrast media

European Radiology, 2001
Adverse reactions to iodinated contrast media (ICM) are more likely to develop in patients with asthma, a history of allergy or contrast reaction and in those who are debilitated or medically unstable. These reactions can be divided into renal and general, and the latter are subdivided into acute and delayed.

Patients with a history of hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast medium and given iodinated contrast during an interventional pain procedure

Regional anesthesia and pain medicine, 2018
In patients with a history of a hypersensitivity reaction to iodinated contrast medium, iodinated contrast medium is avoided, antihistamine and steroid premedication are given, or a gadolinium-based contrast agent is employed. Six patients with a history

Aggravation of thyrotoxicosis by an iodinated contrast medium

The British Journal of Radiology, 1977
In recent years a few reports have appeared describing patients presenting initially with nontoxic goitre and in whom thyrotoxicosis was induced by the administration of either inorganic iodide (Connolly et al., 1970; Vagenakis et al., 1972) or iodinated contrast media (Blum et al., 1974; Shetty et al., 1974).

Iodinated Liposomes as Contrast Agents

2007
The use of liposomal contrast agents for computed tomography (CT) imaging applications is considered. The properties of the various liposome types as well as methods for their preparation are discussed. Specific challenges for the preparation and use of CT contrast-carrying liposomes are outlined.
