ABSTRACT
Metrizamide lumbar myelography were performed in 150 patients with suspected herniated lumbar disc. The examination is easier to perform than with gas or iophendylate. The advantage of metrizamide over gas or iophendylate are the improved root sleeve visualization and examination of small structure such as root, root pocket and blood vessel. And then this is a higher percentage of diagnostic accuracy than can be obtained with other myelogram. Most of adverse reactions during and after myelography are mild and transitory, and no serious adverse reactions occured. It probably has a lower neurotoxicity than any other water soluble contrast agent.
