Carbon dioxide angiography: a simple and safe system of delivery.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an established alternate angiographic contrast agent, which can be delivered by pump or hand injection. We describe a simple, safe and inexpensive hand injection system that delivers a known volume of CO2 at atmospheric pressure and prevents contamination with room air.

Comparison of intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography using carbon dioxide by 'home made' delivery system and conventional iodinated contrast media in the evaluation of peripheral arterial occlusive disease of the lower limbs.
To prospectively compare the feasibility, safety and diagnostic role of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) digital subtraction angiography (DSA) using a 'home made' delivery system with iodinated contrast medium (ICM) DSA in the evaluation of peripheral arterial occlusive diseases (PAOD) of lower limbs. Twenty-one patients (27 limbs; all men; mean age, 47.6 years) who presented with PAOD of lower limbs und...
متن کاملRenal artery intervention utilizing carbon dioxide angiography
Carbon dioxide angiography is an established non-nephrotoxic option for imaging of the infradiaphragmatic arteries and veins. Safe performance of the technique once required a somewhat cumbersome system, however, recent innovations have simplified implementation and expanded the user base for this technique. As such, patient access has also increased. In this issue, Hameed et al. provide initia...
متن کاملPrediction of Solubility of β-Carotene as a Component in a Multicomponent System in High-Pressure Carbon Dioxide
Solubility prediction of high molecular weight molecules in high-pressure solvents is an interesting field of research. Sometimes the solubility data are not available for several components due to lacking of valid equipments. Therefore, an accurate prediction technique can help the researchers. According to the literature, the simple Equations of State (EoSs) such as Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK),...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation and Modeling of Carbon Dioxide Adsorption from Model Flue gas
In this work, the adsorption of carbon dioxide from model flue gas on different adsorbents has been investigated. Using simplified modeling, parameters such as the total mass transfer coefficient and the effective diffusivity have been determined. Experiments were carried out in two sections: firstly, adsorption of pure carbon dioxide on different adsorbents was measured at pressures ranging fr...
متن کاملCerebral Gas Embolism - A Serious Complication of CO2 Angiography
Carbon dioxide angiography is routinely used for vascular imaging and endovascular procedures. It is very useful in patients with allergy to iodinated contrast agents or with poor renal function. It is relatively safe to use. We describe first case of cerebral gas embolism leading to multiple bilateral ischemic strokes in a patient receiving carbon dioxide angiography for workup of thrombosed a...
