[Cranioplasty using radiopaque allotransplants]

A method for contrasting plates of acrylic resins for cranioplasty in defects in the skull bones was developed. Per each 1.0 g of protacryl (or butacryl, etc.) powder 0.2 g of iodine-containing agents (verografin, urografin, urotrast, etc.) was added. This ensured a high contrast of the allograft not only in the immediate but also in the late period. The developed method is of great significance in conducting expert medical assessment of working capacity when there is no corresponding medical documentation and the medical history is unclear.
