| Abstract: | The effect of iohexol and ioxaglate on granulocyte adherence to nylon fibers was investigated with blood from 15 patients undergoing angiography, and from 24 patients undergoing excretory urography. Decreased adherence and increased numbers of granulocytes in the circulation were observed soon after injection of iohexol or ioxaglate in the aorta, or injection of ioxaglate i.v. Increased adherence and decreased numbers of granulocytes in the circulation were observed soon after injection of iohexol i.v. The differences were small soon after the injection of contrast media (CM). More pronounced decreased adherence and increased numbers of granulocytes were detected 2 and 5 hours after injection in the aorta for both CM. |
