  • Title: Omnipaque and urografin in arthrography of the knee.
    Author: Farsø Nielsen F, de Carvalho A, Hjøllund Madsen E.
    Journal: Acta Radiol Diagn (Stockh); 1984; 25(2):151-4. PubMed ID: 6731021.
    Abstract:
    The first experience with Omnipaque in arthrography of the knee in patients is reported. Forty arthrographies were performed using either Omnipaque 350 mg I/ml or Urografin 370 mg I/ml at random. The low-osmolar non-ionic Omnipaque showed a tendency for pain of shorter duration and lower incidence of hydrops. A significantly lower incidence of complaints of tension and swelling and assessed reactive synovitis was demonstrated. Both contrast media produced excellent synovial coating on standard series, but Omnipaque showed a slower decrease in attenuation.
