  • Title: Anaphylactoid reactions with gastrointestinal contrast media.
    Author: Skucas J.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1997 Apr; 168(4):962-4. PubMed ID: 9124150.
    Abstract:
    Significant anaphylactoid reactions to gastrointestinal contrast media are rare. Whether a patient who is atopic or has asthma is predisposed to these reactions is speculative. The rare patient who previously had a severe allergic reaction to such a product probably should not undergo a subsequent examination with a similar agent. The American College of Radiology classification of contrast media side effects can also be applied to the gastrointestinal contrast media.
