  • Title: Comparison of iohexol and meglumine iothalamate in single contrast knee arthrography. A double-blind investigation.
    Author: Tallroth K, Vankka E.
    Journal: Ann Clin Res; 1986; 18(3):144-7. PubMed ID: 3527029.
    Abstract:
    A prospective double-blind study was performed to assess the side effects and visualization quality of 2 contrast media, iohexol and meglumine iothalamate in single contrast arthrography. There were very few adverse reactions during the examination. During the 2 days after arthrography pain occurred in about 29% of each group. Iohexol caused somewhat less delayed pain on movement and fewer sensations of swelling than iothalamate. The quality of the arthrograms was significantly better with iohexol both in films taken immediately after injection as well as after 20 minutes.
