The feasibility of targeting iodinated contrast agents to the exocrine pancreas was investigated. Iodinated weak organic acids including succinic acid-mono-3-amino-2,4,6-triiodo- N-ethylanilide (compound I), the ethanolamine salt of N-ethylsuccinic acid-(2,4,6-triiodo-3-methylamino anilide) (compound II), and the sodium salt of 2,4,6-triiodo-3-N-ethylacetylamino-phenylpropionic acid (compound III) were studied as potential contrast agents for computed tomography (CT) of the pancreas.
