An open-label noncomparative clinical study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of ioversol (Optiray 300), a new low-osmolality non ionic contrast medium, in body contrast-enhanced CT scanning in infants and children. Fourty pediatric patients who required contrast-enhanced CT scanning for evaluation of chest, abdominal or pelvic masses participated in the study. The vascular enhancement was judged to be excellent or good in 72.5% of the cases and the CT scans were judged to be diagnostic in 95% of the cases. Ioversol was well tolerated in the study with only two mild adverse reactions (nausea and vomiting, and metallic taste).

D009447 Neuroblastoma A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome.
