Contrast Media And Guidelines description

For more than 10 years the ESUR contrast media safety committee has been providing
radiologists with the latest information and updates on the adverse effects and risks of
contrast media. The recommendations and guidelines from this committee have generated great interest and are now universally recognized for their high scientific value.
They are based on solid scientific research, objective data and comprehensive, independent literature analysis. The long-standing and extensive personal clinical expertise
of each of the committee members constitute the base for authoritative statements on
many controversial issues regarding the correct use of contrast agents in clinical radiology.
As a comprehensive work, this book covers not only the classic iodinated contrast
media and barium preparations, but also the more recent MR and US contrast agents.
Indeed, this work brings together an immense volume of data and invaluable specific
information, originally scattered throughout the literature but now available in one
publication.
