[Comparison of liposoluble and water-soluble contrast media in sialography]. 1977

P U Gennari, and C Aversa, and L Fiamminghi

Highly, averagely and lightly viscous contrast media most frequently used in radiography of the salivary glands have been compared. It is concluded that the preparation which has so far given the best results is liposoluble but averagely viscous and not too contrasting.
