Triple contrast ventriculography using air-lipiodol-dimer]

A mixture of three contrast media - air, Lipiodol and Dimer - was used in ventriculography in order to combine the advantages of each of them. Air is used for topographical localisation, Dimer shows the overall shape of the ventricular system and Lipiodol outlines blocks. This simple and rapid technique provides easily interpretable films, whatever the indication for the ventriculography.
