It is an agent that changes differential attenuation of x-ray by increasing or decreasing the density of the structure.
It is commonly used to enhance the visibility of blood vessels, gastrointestinal tract etc.
CONTRAST
MEDIA
Types of Contrast Media
Positive contrast media.Negative contrast media.(air
/carbon dioxide)Paramagnetic contrast media
(MRI)Ultrasonic contrast media(USG)
Positive ContrastPositive Contrast
Substance absorbs x rays
Organ become radiopaque
Most common media I,Ba
Negative ContrastNegative Contrast
Organs become more Organs become more radiolucent.radiolucent.
X-rays penetrate more X-rays penetrate more easily.easily.

It is of two types-It is of two types-a.a. Renal C.M Renal C.M
b.b. Biliary C.MBiliary C.M
2nd generation C.M
Iodine is main + ve C.M and used as 25% NaI in 1923.
In 1925,pyridine series developed as-• uroselectant A(1 iodine atom)• uroselectant B(2 iodine atom)
This diodinated C.M were used in diagnostic radiology with satisfactory tolerability.
Renal C.M
In 1950, 3 changes were made in pyridine derivatives.
Changed to Benzene with 3 iodines. Hydrophillic side chains were added. Meglumine cation was introduced.
Renal C.M Contd…..
WHY IODINE?WHY IODINE?
IODINE(atomic wt 127) provides IODINE(atomic wt 127) provides excellent radio-opacity due toexcellent radio-opacity due to
Higher atomic no: and K-shell Higher atomic no: and K-shell electron binding energy of 34kev electron binding energy of 34kev which is lower than but closed to which is lower than but closed to mean energy used in diagnostic x-mean energy used in diagnostic x-rays and thus maximizing the photo-rays and thus maximizing the photo-electric effect. electric effect.
