Indications | Diatrizoate Meglumine and Diatrizoate Sodium Solution USP (Celiacimage M) is indicated for radiographic examination of segments of the gastrointestinal tract (esophagus, stomach, proximal small intestine and colon). The preparation is particularly indicated when a more viscous agent such as barium sulfate which is not water-soluble is not feasible or is potentially dangerous. Celiacimage - M may also be used as an adjunct to contrast enhancement in computed tomography of the torso (body imaging); the preparation is indicated, in conjunction with intravenous administration of a radiopaque contrast agent, when unenhanced imaging may not provide sufficient definition in distinguishing normal loops of bowel from adjacent organs or areas of suspected pathology. |
