  • Title: Clinical experience with the intravenous infusion of iodinated contrast material as an adjunct to computed tomography.
    Author: Huckman MS.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1975 Sep; 4(3):297-318. PubMed ID: 170696.
    Abstract:
    The intravenous infusion of iodinated contrast material is an important adjunct to computed tomography with a wide variety of lesions. Some arteriovenous malformations, metastatic lesions and tumors of the sella turcica and cerebellopontine angle which are undetectable by conventional computed tomography may be visualized by this method. Certain other metastatic lesions, primary tumors, abscesses and infarcts which are detectable in the preinfusion tomogram become better defined following infusion. The indications for this examination and the procedures involved are discussed.
