Thoracic myelography with metrizamide. 1977

S Cronqvist
Department of Diagnostic Radiology, University Hospital, Lund, Sweden.

In 124 patients 141 thoracic myelographies were performed with metrizamide (Amipaque). This contrast medium penetrates narrow spaces more easily than gas and oily media. The technique and the positioning of the patient should be adapted to the region clinically suggested in order to obtain best results.
