- Solid material optimized for 80 - 140 kVp
- Used in CT and other X-ray imaging modalities
Contrast enhancement is a major issue in diagnostic imaging. CTiodine offers properties equivalent to iodinated contrast media used for contrast enhancement in diagnostic X-ray procedures.
It consists of a base material with molecularly bound iodine. The concentration of liquid contrast media is given in mg iodine/cm³, which is identical to the solid contrast media based on CTwater (mg iodine/cm³), but comes with the big advantage that CTwater is a solid and easy-to-use material.
CTiodine is available based on CTwater, blood equivalent or standard resin and the CT-numbers are valid for the range from 80 to 140 kV for CTiodine based on CTwater or blood equivalent resin.
