Intrascular application of contrast media (CM) we usually use due examinations like IVU, CT examination of kidney, retroperitoneum, pelvis, CT angiography, PTA, embolisation. Aim of this applicalion is to represent patological leasions, vascular tree, to demonstrate urinary route. Reactions of CM can occur, profylaxis and correct treatment of reaction is important to elimination or to degrease the repercussions. We should use strategies to minimize adverse events and be prepared to promptly recognize and manage any reactions to the contrast media.

Keywords: Key words: iodinated contrast media, rtg, CT examination, undesirable effects, reactions, contrast nephropathy.
