    Notes: Abstract The clinical benefit of iotrolan, a non-ionic dimeric contrast agent, was compared with the commonly used non-ionic contrast agent iopamidol, in a multicenter study in cerebral angiography. Iotrolan provided a diagnostic angiographic effect with a reduced rate of adverse events when compared with iopamidol. Heat sensations at the site of iotrol an injection were apparently milder than with iopamidol, and no effects on hematology, blood biochemistry or urinalysis were observed. The clinical benefit of iotrolan, assessed after consideration of imaging efficacy and overall safety, was good.

    Notes: Abstract A comparative randomised open study was carried out in 120 patients uncle undergoing cerebral angiography, to compare two low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM). All the patients participated voluntarily in the trial. Half the patients (n = 60) received sodium and meglumine ioxaglate (Hexabrix 320) and the other half (n = 60) iohexol (Omnipaque 300). Contrast agent efficacy was evaluated at the different cerebral levels explored. Adverse reactions were recorded immediately and 24 h post-administration. Diagnostic quality was considered excellent in 95% of cases with Omnipaque and in 97% of cases with Hexabrix. Image quality was excellent in 95%, of cases with Omnipaque and in 100 % of cases with Hexabrix. In terms of both efficacy and safety, no significant difference was observed between the agents. Thus, low osmolality would appear to be the essential factor in this indication as far as safety is concerned. No significant difference in safety was noted between the ionic LOCM Hexabrix and the non-ionic LOCM Omnipaque.
