[Slow infusion cholangiography in jaundice. An experimental study in the dog]. 1975

F A Burgener, and H W Fischer

56 intravenous cholangiograms were performed in eleven dogs with either advanced hepatic damage or complete common bile duct obstruction. If radiographic visualization of the biliary system did not occur within 8 hours after a 30 minute infusion with 0.6 ml/kg iodipamide 52%, the result could not be improved by just extending the infusion time to 2 and 6 hours. However, a slight improvement was obtained, when the iodipamide dose was increased up to 1.8 ml/kg. Nevertheless we do not recommend a massive increase of the dose in the icteric patient, because it is likely that the risk of toxic side effects increases with an increasing iodipamide dose.
