Intracisternal dimer X: Toxicity and prophylaxis

Intracisternal dimer X: Toxicity and prophylaxis 234 11 11 2 2 M. Nishikawa Y. Yonekawa Neurochirurgisches Mikrolabor des Kantonsspitals Zürich Zürich Switzerland Summary Although Dimer X is said to be a low toxic water soluble contrast medium, epileptic seizures sometimes occur during or after Dimer X ventriculography. The toxicity of this dye was examined in rats and possible prophylactic measures were evaluated. From the results of our experiment it was concluded that Dimer X of low concentration should be used with premedication of Valium and Decadron. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Neuroradiology 0028-3940 Springer Journals
