Contrast enhancement of the upper abdomen evaluated by CT. A comparison between iohexol 350 mg I/ml and iopamidol 370 mg I/ml. 1995

Karolinska Institute, Huddinge Hospital, Sweden.

The non-ionic monomeric contrast media iopamidol and iohexol were compared concerning enhancement in the organs of the upper abdomen in CT. The average peak enhancement above the base line for the 2 contrast media in the liver, vena cava, aorta and spleen was calculated. No difference between the contrast media was found with regard to increase in contrast enhancement. No correlation between the peak enhancement and body weight and body surface was found with either of the 2 contrast media.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007472 Iohexol An effective non-ionic, water-soluble contrast agent which is used in myelography, arthrography, nephroangiography, arteriography, and other radiographic procedures. Its low systemic toxicity is the combined result of low chemotoxicity and low osmolality. Compound 545,Exypaque,Iohexol 350,Nycodenz,Omnipaque
D007479 Iopamidol A non-ionic, water-soluble contrast agent which is used in myelography, arthrography, nephroangiography, arteriography, and other radiological procedures.
