Proven to help manage risk in vulnerable patient populations
Interventional
Interventional patient procedures are becoming more complex and involve increasingly older patients with a greater prevalence of co-morbidities. With the same osmolality as blood Visipaque induces less fluid shift from both red blood cells and endothelial cells than the low-osmolar contrast agents. Visipaque can help reduce kidney injury in high-risk patients.
Oncology
Visipaque can help deliver diagnostic accuracy by enabling vulnerable contract-enhanced computed tomography (CT) in patients with renal impairment and minimizing contrast-associated pain.
cCTA (Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography)
cCTA is an accurate, cost-effective and patient friendly tool for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD) in low-intermediate risk patients. Visipaque is designed for patient comfort and can help improve stent evaluability. it can also help minimize heat sensation and impact on the heart rate.
