  • Title: Indirect lymphography with iotrolan.

    Journal: Fortschr Geb Rontgenstrahlen Nuklearmed Erganzungsbd; 1989; 128():178-81. PubMed ID: 2568790.
    Abstract:
    Iotrolan was used in concentrations of 240 and 300 mg I/ml for indirect lymphography in a total of 70 patients, and permitted a diagnostic evaluation of the peripheral lymphatics in all cases. The contrast quality was found to correlate with the concentration used. The concentration of 300 mg I/ml Iotrolan was judged to provide the better contrast density and definition. Side effects were limited to transient local erythema and pain during the infusion in one patient and a protracted reaction resembling serum sickness in another patient (Iotrolan 240 mg I/ml). Because of its excellent tolerance, Iotrolan is particularly suitable after subepidermal infusion for indirect lymphography, during which the local lymph drainage of cutaneous regions of interest can be evaluated.
