In 1994 the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) set up a committee to consider the safety of the contrast media used in radiology departments. Since then, the committee has questioned members, reviewed the literature, proposed guidelines, and discussed these proposals with participants at the annual symposia on urogenital radiology. This book represents the end result of this hard work. It contains all of the agreed guidelines, updated when necessary, and thereby comprehensively covers the many different safety issues relating to the diverse contrast media: barium contrast media, iodinated contrast media, MR contrast media (both gadolinium-based extracellular and organ-specific) and ultrasound contrast media. The prevention and treatment of both acute and delayed non-renal adverse reactions as well as the renal adverse reactions are covered in detail. The inclusion of all the ESUR guidelines within one book will offer an invaluable, unique and unparalleled resource. TOC:Classification, Terminology.- Off-Label Use - Legal Aspects.- Gen. Adverse Reactions: Prevention of Acute Reactions.- Management of Acute Adverse Reactions to Contrast Media.- Late Adverse Reactions to Intravascular Iodinated Contrast Media.- Renal Adverse Effects: Reducing the Risk of Contrast Media Induced Nephrotoxicity.- Dialysis & Contrast Media.- Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes & Contrast Media.- Other Adverse Effects: Iodinated & Gadolinium Contrast Media During Pregnancy & Lactation.- Effects on Blood and Endothelium.- Effects on Iodinated Contrast Media on Thyroid Function.- Pulmonary Effects of Radiographic Contrast Media.- Phaeocromocytoma.- Contrast Media: Interactions w. Other Drugs & Clinical Tests.- Contrast Medium Extravasation Injury.- MR Contrast Media: Non-tissue Specific Extra Cellular MR Contrast Media.- Gadolinium Contrast Media for Radiographic Examinations.- Safety of MR Liver Specific Contrast Media.- Ultrasonographic Contrast Media: Safety of Ultrasound Contrast Agents.- Barium Preparations: Safety Issues.-Appendix: ESUR Guidelines on Contrast Media.

This is the third edition of a very successful book that originally emerged from the work of a committee set up by the European Society of Urogenital Radiology in 1994 to consider the safety of contrast media used for diagnostic imaging. The new edition not only fully updates the previous edition, but also includes new chapters on complex topics such as pediatric issues and practical aspects of off-label contrast media use. Comprehensive consideration is given to the many different safety issues relating to iodine-based contrast media, gadolinium-based contrast media, microbubbles for ultrasound, and barium sulfate. The text includes chapters on both acute and delayed non-renal adverse reactions and on renal adverse reactions. All of the questions frequently raised in radiological practice are addressed. This book, presented in a handy, easy-to-use format, provides an invaluable, unique, and unparalleled source of information.
