Title: [Current status of diagnosis of the cerebrospinal-fluid space using Amipaque (metrizamide)]. Author: Gemende G, Sehl U, Kintzel D, Lang G. Journal: Zentralbl Neurochir; 1977; 38(2):221-32. PubMed ID: 343443. Abstract: A report is given on 73 examinations using Metrizamide (8 thoracolumbar myelographies, 18 ventriculographies, 47 suboccipital myelographies) under consideration of the latest literature. Subsequent systematic EEG-controls were carried out in 52 patients. Exact observance of the indication, adequate dosage, optimum preparation and after-treatment of the patients as well as a appropriate operation technique can limitate the vegetativ side-effects and avoid rarely occurring serious complications. Publications in the literature as well as our own experiences stress the excellent representation of the details of the ventricular system and the spinal subarachnoid space.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
