How it Works

Isodixanol Injection is an iodine-based contrast medium. It is given before radiological examinations (like X-rays) to create contrast in the body. When injected into the body, it temporarily highlights specific areas by absorbing X-rays, making the targeted structures or blood flow visible during imaging. This helps doctors to more easily identify any issues or irregularities in the body.
