A member asked:

Can you take iodine oral contrast solution for abdomen ct scan when u have a chronic sore throat, lumpy taste buds, web like veins&yellowness in mouth?

Iodine contrast: Oral contrast for abdominal ct has been fallen out of favor in our area. However, if you were to take it, none of the conditions you listed is a contraindication.

Read/Watch more here: Please see these articles (and it's related articles) for a good summary about ct scans and contrast: http://www.Conciergeradiologist.Com/ct-scan-with-contrast.Html. The article mainly focuses on IV contrast, but there is information about oral contrast (the focus if the question) as well.
