Hysterosalpingography with a new contrast medium.

This article reports on the use of iotrolan--a new contrast medium and the first dimeric, nonionic, hexaiodinated, water-soluble preparation--in hysterosalpingography. This randomized, double-blind study compared an ionic and a nonionic monomeric preparation. The better results were achieved with iotrolan. Its unusual lack of local irritation and its high contrast quality, especially definition of contrast, merit particular mention.
