2. Contrast Media
It is an agent that changes differential attenuation of
x-ray by increasing or decreasing the density of the
structure.
It is commonly used to enhance the visibility of blood
vessels, gastrointestinal tract etc.

8. Contrast media Iodine particle ratio
Ionic monomer 3:2
Ionic dimer 6:2
Non ionic monomer 3:1
Non ionic dimer 6:1
Iodine -particle ratio = No. of iodine atoms per
molecule of CM / no. of osmotic ally active particles
per molecule of CM.
10. Negative C.M. Positive C.M.
Which make image clearly
visible and enhance contrast by
decreasing Atomic No. and
Atomic Weight.
Organs become more
radiolucent.
X-rays penetrate more
easily.
Ex: Air,CO2
Which make image clearly
visible and enhance conteast by
increasing Atomic No. and
Atomic weight.
Substance absorbs x rays
Organ become radiopaque
Most common media I, Ba
Example :
Barium Sulphate ( Ba So4 )
Oily CM
Iodinate CM (Water Soluble )
14. Solubility Less Better
Tolerance Less Better
BBB effect Crosses Not
Vascular effects More Less
Viscosity Low High
Diuretic Less Strong
Opacification Better Less
