[Intravenous cholangiocholecystography using ioglycamide--indications and value]. / Intravenöse Cholangiocholezystographie mit Ioglykamid--Indikationen und Wertigkeit.

The introduction of modern methods of diagnostic imaging as sonography, CT and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography has changed the value of intravenous cholegraphy. Since the introduction of the contrast medium Ioglycamide into clinical practice two years ago we evaluated the cholangiocholecystographies of 50 patients. The investigation was indicated, if no elucidation was achieved with sonography. Side effects were not registered with Ioglycamide. Indications and value of the method are discussed.
