A member asked:
Thoughts? could oral and iv contrast make me sick - ct scan?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: With the introduction of of nonionic contrast material, the incidence of the severe nausea we used to see with the older material was much reduced. The dilute barium solution used for oral contrast also rarely causes any difficulties. Most people have no problems with the procedure.
