This book documents the fascinating history of radiological techniques that use contrast agents. The text includes many of the fundamental documentary sources that bring to life the social and scientific background of the discoveries, the personalities of the discoverers, and implementation of new technologies. Such agents when used with X-rays allow clinicians to distinguish anatomical structures with nearly identical densities. Focus is on urological and angiographic uses of contrast agents.

Rezensionen
"This book, written by the eminent chemist and former scientific adviser to Bracco, covers the history of x-ray contrast agents concentrating primarily on uroangiographic agents. The contributions of the giants in this field, such as Lichtenberg, Swick and of course Almen, are covered in considerable depth." - Dr. Arpan K Banerjee, past chair and trustee, British Society for the History of Radiology
