Description

Iopentol is a non-ionic X-ray contrast medium. It contains a tri-iodinated benzene ring, which, due to a high atomic density of iodine, causes hight attenuation of X-rays. Iopentol It has been used in various radiologic procedures to aid the radiographic visualization of selected tissues and organs. Iopentol is not commercially available in the United States, but was marketed in Europe under tradename Imagopaque for arteriography, urography, phlebography and computed tomography enhancement, arthrography, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, hysterosalpingography, and gastrointestinal studies.
