2.Changes in Renal Size by Infusion of Contrast Agent and Furosemide.
Korean Journal of Urology 1976;17(4):237-242
Changes in renal size by infusion of contrast agent and furosemide were studied in normal adult kidneys. Renal sizes were measured in simple, 5, 15, 25, and 45 minutes films, in Group I, which was performed IVP with Hypaque and Group II, which was performed IVP with Hypaque and furosemide infusion. 1. Kidney size Simple film : Group I : 12.22+/-0.61cm Group II : 12.19+/-0.75cm 15min. film : Group I : 12.67(0.89%) Group II : 13. 49+/-0.63cm Maximal increase in size : Group I: 0.41cm Group II : 1. 30cm 2. Possible application to unilateral renovascular disease: Enhancement of renal size difference in unilateral renovascular hypertension.

Since 1929, the iodine compounds were used intravenous pyelogram by the Swick, it was accepted for the use of intravenous pyelogram in the worldwide. Nevertheless, it has several minor and major side reactions, also it has been used to IVP or cholecystography at X-ray room without prepared for side reaction or resuscitation. We have experienced a case of sever hypersensitivity reaction with the urografin during IVP at X-ray room. Here, we review with the several articles including its etiology, symptoms and treatments. Especially, we classified the mild and severe reactionsby David and Frederick from Table 1 Table 6. Furthermore we considered that t is necessary to prepared the resuscitating instruments during IVP with urografin under local or general anesthesia.

4.Diagnostic Value of Orbitography in the Space-occupying Orbital Lesions: The report of 11 cases.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1974;15(4):316-322
A techque of positive contrast orbitography with 20% Hypaque was described. A retrobulbar injection of 4.0 to 6.0cc. of 20% Hypaque (50% Hypaque 4.0cc., 2% Lidocain 1.0cc., saline solution 5.0cc.) was performed. Simple skull Cantero-posterior and lateral), Water's, Caldowell and Optic foramen views were obtained in 15 minutes after injection. Space-occupying lesions of the orbit produced radiolucencies within the muscle cone of contrast material or indentation and deformities of the contours of the muscle cone. 11 patients with clinical signs of space-occupying orbital lesions were examined. Tumors were accurately outlined in 8 patients, in one case the investigtiaon was not technically satisfactory and another 2 cases we couldn't confirm by surgical removal. No complications were observed in orbitography. The technique is thought to be superior to negative contrast orbitography and angiography.

Korean Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition 2006;9(2):249-255
Meconium plug syndrome (MPS) is the mildest and most common form of functional distal obstruction in the newborn. It is a transient obstruction of the distal colon and occasionally small bowel that is caused by inspissated immobile meconium. Neonates with MPS commonly presented with abdominal distension, bilious vomiting and problem with passage of meconium plugs. A plain abdominal radiograph often reveals generalized gaseous distention of the small bowel loops without an air-fluid level. A contrast enema is diagnostic, showing the outline of the meconium plug, and therapeutic if the plugs are passed out. In some cases of MPS there is failure to pass the meconium with the contrast enema, and emergent surgery is then required. We report here two cases of MPS that were diagnosed and treated by exploratory laparotomy and one case treated with Gastrografin enema.

PURPOSE: We compared the use of diluted gastrografin enema- and air enema CT for the evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative lesion detection and the staging of colorectal carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-two patients (43 lesions) with colorectal carcinoma, diagnosed by barium enema and/or colonoscopy, underwent preoperative diluted (2.5%) gastrografin enema CT, and in another 26 patients (27 lesions) with colorectal carcinoma, air enema CT was performed. The presence or absence of lesion, its spread (T), and peritumoral lymph node (N) were analyzed. All patients underwent surgery and pathologic confirmation was obtained. RESULTS: Gastrografin enema CT and air enema CT demonstrated the primary tumor in 97.7% (42 of 43) and 96.3% of cases (26 of 27), respectively. A comparison of gastrografin enema CT and the pathologic results showed that the disease was correctly staged as T2 in five of six cases, as T3 in 28 of 31, and as T4 in two of five. Using air enema CT, the disease was correctly staged as T2 in three of three cases, as T3 in 17 of 21, and as T4 in one of two. Overall, carcinoma was correctly staged by gastrografin enema CT in 83% of cases (35 of 42) and by air enema CT in 81% (21 of 26). Nodal involvement was accurately detected in 64% of cases (27 of 42) using gastrografin enema CT and in 69% (18 of 26) using air enema CT. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that the use of gastrografin enema or air enema CT does not significantly affect the diagnostic outcome.

Positive contrast orbitography was performed on 5 cases with hypaque under the fluoroscopy using the General Electric television angio-unit. Tumors were outlined in all cases and their size and extent were verified by operation in four of them. All of patients complained of retro-ocular tension and edema of their conjunctiva and eyelids, but about 3 hours later, there were no remained symptoms except hyperemia of their conjunctiva.

Barium suspension, oral iodine contrast medium and water were applied in eight dogs to evaluate (1) distension of gastrointestinal tract, (2) the effect of the oral contrast media on the identification of the pancreas from surrounding organs, and (3) image quality and the presence of artifacts in canine pancreas computed tomography (CT) images. Oral iodine contrast medium, gastrografin, produced significant artifacts that deteriorated the CT images of the pancreas. The use of water did not provide the fullness of the gastrointestinal lumens. Barium suspension was effective for the identification of the pancreas from the surrounding gastrointestinal tract, without significantly increasing image noise. Barium suspension can be used as an optimal contrast medium that will not cause an adverse effect on the pancreatic density and image quality.

Journal of the Korean Radiological Society 1992;28(1):17-23
There has been few papers regarding the pathologic changes of kidney induced by contrast media, especially in terms of iodine concentration or osmolarity. In order to evaluate histopathologic changes, a series of rat kidneys, after injection of iodinated contrast media, were examined. A total of 220 rats were divided into two groups: those given Urografin-60% by 6.3 ml/Kg(1840mg/6.3ml):those given Urografin-76% by 5ml/Kg(1850mg/5ml). (the same amount of iodine but at different iodine concentration). The kidneys were removed and microscopically examined on 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10th days, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 12th weeks after injection of contrast media, respectively. The results were as follows: Renal pathologic changes induced by contrast media were congestion and ectatic change of the interstitial vessels, epithelial degeneration and necrosis of the collectiong ducts. Congestion of interstitial vessels and epithelial degeneration and necrosis of the collecting ducts were severe in the higher iodine concentration Urografin-76% group(2100 Osm/Kg H2O) than the Urografin-60% group(1500 Osm/Kg H2O). And above pathological changes persisted for 12weeks without significant interval changes. The authors conclude that the renal damage induced by ionic contrast media becomes more severe in higher concentrations or osmolarities in spite of the same amount of iodine and that the pathologic changes persisted until 12 weeks without improvement.
