title: [Descending myelography with water contrast media by the methods of lateral puncture of the great occipital cisterna].
abstract: A method of lateral puncture of the great occipital cistern for descending myelography with water soluble contrast substances was employed. It was used in 150 neurosurgical inpatients aged 4 to 70 with various diseases of the spinal marrow and its coats. A new water soluble drug iopamidol-200 (or 300) (Bracco, Italy) was used for diagnosis of spinal tumors. The drug dosage was worked out for adults as well as for children. A study was made of possible side-effects on a vast clinical material (80 patients). The new contrast substance iopamidol possesses better tolerance by patients and better roentgenocontrast properties than amipack.
