Metrizamide--CSF contrast medium. Analysis of clinical application in 215 patients
Radiology.
1977 Jun.
Abstract
Two-hundred-fifteen patients were evaluated with metrizamide, a new water-soluble contrast agent for use in the subarachnoid spaces. Side effects were reported in 67% of these; 39% were moderate or severe. Cervical injections monitored by fluoroscopy provide the most precise positioning of the medium. The benefits of metrizamide use outweigh its risk.
