Abstract
Metrizamide (300 mg l/ml) was tested for spinal peridurography in conscious dogs and humans. Epidural metrizamide was non-irritating in volumes up to 12 ml. Larger volumes caused mild discomfort in 2 patients. Radiographic contrast was satisfactory, and there were no sequelae. Peridurography with metrizamide (300 mg l/ml) appears to be safe, useful diagnostic procedure in ambulant patients.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
