Iohexol, sold under the trade name Iodaque among others, is a contrast agent used for X-ray imaging. [4] This includes when visualizing arteries, veins, ventricles of the brain, the urinary system, and joints, as well as during computed tomography (CT scan). [4] It is given by mouth, injection into a vein, or into a body cavity. [5]
Heating non-ionic contrast agent to human body temperature reduces its viscosity. [2] The amount of iodine administered in children in the United States in 2010 was 272 to 740 mg/kg for CT scan. [3] Iodine contrast agents are used for the following: [citation needed] Contrast CTs; Angiography (arterial investigations) Venography (venous ...

A contrast is defined as the sum of each group mean multiplied by a coefficient for each group (i.e., a signed number, c j). [10] In equation form, = ¯ + ¯ + + ¯ ¯, where L is the weighted sum of group means, the c j coefficients represent the assigned weights of the means (these must sum to 0 for orthogonal contrasts), and ¯ j represents the group means. [8]
