    Area of Science:

    • Vascular imaging
    • Medical diagnostics
    • Interventional radiology

    Background:

    • Traditional contrast agents for angiography can cause hypersensitivity reactions and discomfort.
    • Iodinated contrast agents carry risks of arterial injury.
    • Developing safer and more effective contrast agents for vascular imaging is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a contrast agent for arterial imaging using digital subtraction fluoroscopy.
    • To assess the safety and clinical utility of CO2 angiography in a patient cohort.

    Main Methods:

    • Arterial injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) in 17 patients.
    • Imaging performed using digital subtraction fluoroscopy.
    • Attention to patient positioning to optimize gas perfusion due to CO2 buoyancy.

    Main Results:

    • Consistent production of clinically useful arterial images.
    • Occasional visualization of parenchymal tissues and veins.
    • CO2 demonstrated low viscosity, suitable for microcatheter delivery.
    • No hypersensitivity reactions or significant discomfort reported.

    Conclusions:

    • Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a viable and effective contrast agent for arterial imaging.
    • CO2 angiography offers a potentially safer alternative with reduced risks of injury and discomfort.
    • Further research into CO2's role in interventional radiology is warranted.
