Abstract Iotrolan was compared with iohexol and iopamidol for efficacy and general tolerance in excretory urography in three controlled, randomized, inte-individual, double-blind studies. Two hundred and eighty-four patients received fixed doses of 100 ml, 120 ml or 150 ml iotrolan 280 or iohexol 300/iopamidol 300 by rapid or bolus injection. Contrast quality in films taken 3–40 min after injection was rated by experienced radiologists both on an overall basis and with regard to distinct anatomical regions (parenchyma, pelvicalyceal system, ureter, bladder). In all studies, contrast quality was assessed as better in the iotrolan group. In two studies (dosages 100 and 120 ml), significant differences in contrast quality were found in lavour of iotrolan (P 〈 0.05), and in the third study (dosage 150 ml) there was a trend towards better contrast quality in the iotrolan group (P = 0.06). General tolerance of iotrolan was good with only minor side effects (iotrolan 6.3%, iohexol/iopamidol 9.9%), but the difference was not significant. No severe adverse reactions were observed with iotrolan. In comparison with non-ionic monomers, iotrolan shows very good efficacy and general tolerance for excretory urography.
