Recently introduced low osmolality contrasts produce less pain on injection and decrease other adverse side effects of angiography; however, converting completely to these agents is prohibitively expensive. Reserving low osmolality contrasts for high risk patients can provide a marked reduction in the increased cost associated with low osmolality contrasts, while at the same time reducing overall adverse side effects.
最近推出的低渗性造影剂在注射时产生的疼痛较轻，并减少了血管造影的其他不良副作用；然而，完全改用这些制剂的成本高得令人望而却步。将低渗性造影剂留给高危患者使用，可以显著降低与低渗性造影剂相关的成本增加，同时减少总体不良副作用。
