title: Arthrography with iotrolan: double-blind comparison between nonionic, monomeric (iohexol 300) and nonionic, dimeric (iotrolan 300) contrast media.
abstract: Arthrography of the shoulder and knee joints is optimized by the new nonionic, dimer contrast medium iotrolan 300 in comparison to the nonionic, monomer iohexol 300. Detail recognition increases and is longer lasting. The contrast density remains good for more than 40 minutes, thus making repeated examinations due to diagnostic uncertainty superfluous.
