When used as an x-ray contrast agent, the compound of this invention preEerably comprises at least about 35%, more 5 preferably 40% iodine by weight. ~ :
In pre:Eerred embodiments, the compounds of this invention can be formulated into particulate x ray contrast ~ ;
- - 8 - 21~6~ 26299-110 compositions, preferably nanoparticulate X-ray contrast compositions, as described in commonly-owned European Pa-tent No. 498,482. Such nanoparticulate compositions can be prepared by dispersing the compounds of the invention in a liquid dispersion medium, and wet grinding the compound in the presence of rigid grinding media and a surface modifier to form the nanoparticles. Alternatively, the surface modifier can be contacted with the compound after attrition.
The X-ray contrast compositions o this invention comprise the above-described compounds, preferably in the form of particles, and a physiologically acceptable carrier therefor.
For example, the particles can be dispersed in an aqueous liquid which serves as the carrier for the X-ray contrast agent. Other suitable carriers include liquid carriers such as mixed aqueous and nonaqueous solvents, such as alcohol; gels; gases, such as air; and powders.
The X~ray contrast composition can comprise from about 1-99.9, preferably 2-45 and more preferably 10-25% by weight of the above-described particles, the reaminder of the composition being the carrier, additives and the like. Compositions up to about 100% by weight of the particles are contemplated when the composition is in a lyophilized form.
The dose of the contrast agent to be administered can be selected according to techniques known to those skilled in the art such that a sufficient contrast enhancing effect is obtained. Typical doses can range from 50 to 350 mg of iodine per kilogram of body weight of the subject for many imaging - 9 ~ . 1 9 ~ ~ ~
; 26299-110 applications. For some applications, e.g., lymphography, lower doses, e.g., 0.5-20 mg I/kg, can be effective.
The X-ray contrast composition can contain one or more conventional additives used to control and/or enhance the properties of the X-ray contrast agent. For example, thickening agents sush as dextran or human serum albumin, buffers, viscosity regulating agents, suspending agents, peptizing agents, anti-clotting agents, mixing agents, and other drugs and the like can be added. A partial listing of certain specific additives ~ -includes gums, sugars such as dextran, human serum albumin, gelatin, sodium alginate, agar, dextrin, pectin and sodium ~;~
carboxymethyl cellulose. Such additives, surface active agents, preservatives and the like can be incorporated into the compositions of the invention.
A method for diagnostic imaging for use in accordance with this invention comprises administering to the body of a test subject in need of an X-ray, an effective contrast producing amount of the above-described X-ray contrast composition. In addition to human patients, the test subject can include mammalian species such as rabbits, dogs, cats, monkeys, sheep, pigs, horses, bovine animals and the like. Thereafter, at least a portion of the body containing the administered contrast agent is exposed to X-rays to produce an X-ray image pattern corresponding to the presence of the contrast agent. The image pattern can then be visualized. For example, any X-ray visualization technique, preferably, a high contrast technique such as computed tomography, can be applied in a conventional manner. Alternatively, the image ;
pattern can be observed directly on an X-ray sensitive phosphor screen-silver halide photographic film combination.
The compositions of this invention can be administered by a variety of routes depending on the type of procedure and the anatomical orientation of this tissue being examined.
Suitable administration routes include intravascular (arterial or venous) administration by catheter, intravenous injection, rectal administration, subcutaneous adminstration, intramuscular administration, intralesional administration, intrathecal administration, intracisternal administration, oral administra-tion, administration via inhalation, administration directlyinto a body cavity, e.g., arthrography, and the like.
In addition to preferred applications, i.e., for blood pool, liver, spleen and lymph node imaging the X~ray contrast compositions of this invention are also expected to be useful as contrast agents for any organ or body cavity. For example, the 9~
compositions of this invention are expected to be useful as angiographic contrast media, urographic contrast media, myelographic contrast media, gastrointestinal contrast media, cholecystographic and cholangiographic contrast media, arthrographic contrast media, hysterosalpingographic contrast media, oral contrast media and bronchographic contras~ media.
