types of compounds
metal salts
organic iodides
gaseous air
[types] metal salts
bismuth, lead, barium
[MC, poi] metal salts
barium sulfate, GI tract
[types] organic iodides

CM:
Ionic: HOCM
Non-Ionic: LOCM
Ethiodized/Oily CM
[indication] ethiodized CM/oil
lymphography - stay longer
MRI contrast charac
-enhance and improve tissue property
-tissue specificity: attach to poi
-reasonable cleaning period: excrete
-low toxicity
-long shelf life
classification-magnetic property
paramagnetic
superparamagnetic
diamagnetic
[charac] paramagnetic
-slightly magnetic
-directly attaches to H atoms
-consists of metal ion bonded w/ organic moiety (DTPA)
[metal ions-other name] paramagnetic ions
lanthanides
gadolinium, iron, manganese, dysprosium
[PM] low dose = [..]
shortens T1
[PM] high dose = [..]
T2 relaxation
[term] how CM is stored
bioaccumulation methods/ways
[gadolinium-based] category of bioaccumulation methods
-extracellular fluid agents (ECF)
-blood pool contrast agents
-organ-specific contrast agents
[ex] organ specific contrast agents
iron oxide and liposomes
[organ specific contrast agents]imported into cells thru phagocytosis
iron oxide
