  • Title: The epinephrine effect in renal angiography revisited.
    Author: Ekelund L, Gerlock J, Goncharenko V.
    Journal: Clin Radiol; 1978 Jul; 29(4):387-92. PubMed ID: 679613.
    Abstract:
    The effect of various doses of epinephrine on the renal vessels was studied angiographically in 15 kidneys including three renal tumours. Commonly used doses (10--25 microgram) are often too high as demonstrated in this study. Our findings indicate that the optimal dose for pharmacoangiography of renal masses should be 2--5 microgram of epinephrine. The time interval between drug administration and angiography should be less than 1 min and optimally in the range of 10--30s.
