Pharmacological prevention of delayed hypersensitivity reactions caused by iodinated contrast media [PDF]
World Allergy Organization Journal, 2021 Background: Delayed hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) to radiocontrast media (RCM) occur in approximately 0.5–23.0% of patients and are thought to be caused by T cell-mediated mechanisms. However, an optimal pharmacological preventive strategy is not yet

Iodinated contrast media [PDF]
World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews, 2021 Contrast media are the materials utilized in radiology to improve the visualization of certain body structures subjected to analysis in a medical image. Contrast media are, then, diagnostic drugs because they increase the visibility of organs and tissues and allow the identification of details that otherwise could not be observed. With the introduction

More sustainable use of iodinated contrast media – Why?
RadiographyBased on a narrative review of the literature to 1) assess the need for and 2) report methods to help deliver a sustainable approach to iodinated contrast media (ICM) administration.Acute ICM shortages have been noted in the literature. As demand for contrast-enhanced imaging continues to increase and access to raw materials becomes more limited, such ...
