Bis Azainositol Heavy Metal Complexes for X-Ray Imaging

Inventors of Saarland University achieved to develop new neutral bis azainositol heavy metal complexes suitable for the use as X-ray contrast agents with a wide range of advantages compared to common contrast agents. For their higher absorption coefficient in the range of voltages used in CT these complexes lead to scan protocols that provide equivalent or even improved diagnostic value at lower radiation doses compared to conventional triiodinated contrast agents.
