Lopamidol and iodine are often used together as contrast agents for imaging procedures such as CT scans and angiograms. Here are some indications for their use:
CT Scans: Lopamidol and iodine can be used to enhance the visibility of blood vessels, organs, and tissues during CT scans. This can help to diagnose various medical conditions such as tumors, infections, and injuries.
Angiography: Lopamidol and iodine can be used for angiography, a procedure that allows doctors to visualize blood vessels in various parts of the body. Angiography can help to diagnose conditions such as aneurysms, stenosis, and blockages in blood vessels.
Interventional Radiology: Lopamidol and iodine can be used for interventional radiology procedures such as embolization, where they help to guide the placement of tiny particles or coils into blood vessels to block off blood flow to a tumor or other abnormal growth.
Cardiac Imaging: Lopamidol and iodine can be used for cardiac imaging procedures such as cardiac CT and angiography to evaluate the heart and blood vessels for abnormalities.
