Twenty-five patients were observed in a prospective crossover study to determine whether the new low-osmolality contrast agents would be less prone than conventional agents to produce coughing during pulmonary arteriography. Selective left and right pulmonary arteriography (two views of each side) was performed with alternating administrations of diatrizoate sodium meglumine and ioxaglate sodium meglumine. Twenty-one patients had all four injections while four patients received injections on only one side. Sixteen of 25 patients coughed on at least one injection of diatrizoate, with three of these experiencing explosive coughing. One of 25 patients coughed with ioxaglate, and that was only minimally. This difference is statistically significant (P less than .001, on the basis of McNemar chi 2 test for paired data). When no coughing occurred, the quality of the diatrizoate and ioxaglate radiographs was indistinguishable. We conclude that ioxaglate is useful in pulmonary arteriography because of its lack of cough stimulation.
