Since 1996 the Contrast Media Safety Committee of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) has released 19 guidelines regarding safety in relation to the use of radiographic, ultrasonographic as well as magnetic resonance contrast media. The committee has covered both renal and non-renal adverse events as well as other aspects of contrast media. The present paper is an overview of th...

BACKGROUND Millions of interventional pain procedures are performed each year in the United States. Interventional pain physicians commonly administer radiocontrast media (RCM) under fluoroscopy for these procedures. However, RCM can cause various types of hypersensitivity or allergic type reactions, in an acute or delayed fashion. Furthermore, some patients report a prior history of hypersens...

OBJECTIVE Anaphylaxis is the most severe form of radiocontrast media (RCM) induced hypersensitivity and can be life-threatening if profound hypotension is combined. With increased use of iodine based RCM, related hypersensitivity is rapidly growing. However, the clinical characteristics and risk factors of RCM induced anaphylaxis accompanied by hypotension (anaphylactic shock) are not clearly d...

UNLABELLED Radiographic arthrography and bone scintigraphy are common diagnostic procedures used for evaluating total hip prostheses. In this study, both techniques are combined, and nuclear contrast imaging (nuclear arthrography) is added. The efficacy of the procedures is evaluated. METHODS After intravenous injection of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate (MDP), standard radiographic arthrograph...

Dual-energy (DE) breast x-ray imaging involves acquiring images using a lowand high-energy x-ray spectral pair. These images are then subtracted with a weighting factor that eliminates the soft-tissue signal variation present in the breast leaving only contrast that is attributed to an exogenous imaging agent. We have previously demonstrated the potential for silver (Ag) as a contrast material ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the hypothesis that the time to washout of radiographic contrast medium trapped distal to an occluded collateral receiving vessel is inversely related to collateral flow, and that this provides an accurate method for characterising coronary collaterals. METHODS An intracoronary pressure derived collateral flow index was determined in 54 patients undergoing percutaneou...
