Purpose: The aim of this work was to study the safety and efficacy of iobitridol 350 in pediatric angiocardiography compared to iopamidol 370.
Material and methods: 40 children participated in each test group. Each examination was rated as diagnostic or nondiagnostic and the image quality was noted. Nature,onset,intensity as well as outcome of each adverse reaction was reported.
Results: There was no significant difference in either image quality or clinical safety between the 2 groups.
Conclusion: Iobitridol is a safe and effective contrast agent for pediatric angiocardiography.
