J K Hald

During the seven year period 1976-82 3937 intravenous cholangiographies were performed with thirty-three adverse reactions to the contrast medium Biligram considered to require treatment. One patient died. The frequency of adverse reactions to intravenous cholangiography with Biligram is no reason for abandoning the method.
