Used as a contrast agent in medical imaging procedures such as CT scans, angiography, and urography to enhance the visibility of blood vessels, organs, and tissues. Its high iodine content improves image clarity by absorbing X-rays, allowing for detailed visualization of internal structures. Commonly administered intravenously or intra-arterially, it helps diagnose cardiovascular conditions, kidney abnormalities, and tumors. Known for low osmolality, it reduces the risk of adverse reactions compared to older contrast agents, making it suitable for patients with compromised health. Also used in interventional radiology to guide minimally invasive procedures.
