Opening of the blood-brain barrier after intravenous injection of different contrast media has
been investigated by a quantitative autoradiographic technique using 14C-aminoisobutyric …

Increasingly large doses of contrast medium have been advocated for enhanced computed
tomography. It is assumed that such large intravenous doses, which increase the osmolality …

Conclusions The main reason for the difference in our results seems to be that when the
external carotid artery is ligated as described, there is less risk of distortion of the results by …

The tOXICIty of modern contrast media injected intravenously is low. When such media are
administered intra-arterially, however, toxicity is still a problem and this is cspeciaIly true for …

In 1948 we introduced an experimental procedure for investigating the tolerance of the
cerebral blood vessels to contrast media, one which included the technique applied in the …

In an earlier investigation@ ROMAN & OLLE OLSSON 1948) it was shown in animals that
some contrast media belonging to the diodrast group and used in cerebral angiography are …

The object of this study was to determine the type of cerebral vessel affected by injection of
radiopaque contrast agents used in cerebral angiography. Seventeen rabbits were prepared …

The effects of unilateral cerebral angiography were studied in dogs using 4 currently popular
contrast materials. Mean femoral arterial blood pressure, left ventricular pressure …

The contrast media employed in cerebral angiography are not biologically inert and produce
effects that are often underrated and associated with clinical complications in 1.5 to 3 per …
