Abstract: | After several years of clinical experience worldwide and numerous high-quality, randomized controlled trials in humans, the marked improvement in patient tolerance and safety of low osmolar contrast media (ionic and nonionic) has been demonstrated [1–5]. Iohexol (Omnipaque), Iopamidol (Isovue), Ioxaglate (Hexabrix), and Ioversol (Optiray) are all now available in the United States. |
