X-ray contrast media - what does this mean

X-ray contrast media is a type of dye that is injected into the body to improve the visibility of organs, vessels, and tissues during x-ray imaging. the dye absorbs the x-rays and makes the organs, vessels, and tissues appear brighter on the x-ray image. it is used to help diagnose medical conditions such as tumors, blockages, and other abnormalities.

What happens during the disease - x-ray contrast media

X-ray contrast media is a type of substance used to improve the visibility of certain organs or structures during x-ray imaging. when injected into the body, the contrast media is distributed through the bloodstream and absorbed by the tissues of the organs or structures being imaged. this absorption causes the organs or structures to appear brighter on the x-ray image, making them easier to identify and diagnose. in some cases, the contrast media can cause an allergic reaction, resulting in symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and difficulty breathing.
