    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Contrast Media

    Background:

    • Conventional myelography uses oil-soluble contrast media.
    • These media have limitations, particularly for cervical and thoracic spine imaging.
    • A need exists for safer, more versatile contrast agents.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce Metrizamide (Amipaque) as a new water-soluble contrast medium.
    • To describe the myelographic examination method using water-soluble contrast media.
    • To present findings from myelography using Metrizamide.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized Metrizamide (Amipaque), a water-soluble contrast agent.
    • Adapted myelographic techniques for water-soluble media, differing from oil-soluble methods.
    • Employed tomography, especially for thoracic region examinations.

    Main Results:

    • Metrizamide demonstrates lower toxicity, enabling cervical and thoracic myelography.
    • The examination method for water-soluble contrast media was described.
    • Examples of abnormalities identified during Metrizamide myelography were presented.

    Conclusions:

    • Metrizamide (Amipaque) is a viable and safer alternative for myelography.
    • Its lower toxicity expands the utility of myelography to the cervical and thoracic regions.
    • The study provides a methodological basis and illustrative findings for this new contrast medium.
