Description:Metrizamide is the only water-soluble contrast agent in cerebral ventricle and spinal canal that can be used in cervical vertebra and thoracic vertebra at present. It is suitable for nerve root sheath angiography, and angiography of spinal canal, cerebral cisternum and ventricle. It can also be used in electronic computer X-ray tomography. It can also be used in other areas. The advantage is that it is better tolerated than other contrast agents when large amounts of rapid injection, so it is especially suitable for critical patients.
Metrizamide is an organic iodine compound. After entering the body, it can absorb more X-ray rays than the surrounding tissue structure, thus forming a density contrast on the X-ray image, showing the contour of the lumens where it is located and the morphology of the contained structure.
Metrizamide is a molecule used as a contrast medium.
