title: Comparative study between iohexol and iopromide for aortofemoral arteriography.
abstract: A double-blind clinical trial was performed on 50 patients in order to compare omnipague (iohexol) and Ultravist-300 (iopromide) for peripheral arteriography. Both contrast media were well tolerated, but there was less body heat and pain in the Ultravist group. There were no idiosyncratic reactions or significant changes in blood pressure before and after the injection.
