Rapid Response to the Acute Iodinated Contrast Shortage During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Single-Institution Experience
Modern health care depends upon the use of radiologic imaging for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Iodinated contrast media (ICM) is used in radiology primarily for CT and fluoroscopy-guided procedures. Outside radiology, other services that use ICM include cardiology, vascular surgery, neurology, urology, and gastroenterology. Quaternary care academic medical centers with level I trauma services, comprehensive stroke centers, and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction services all rely heavily upon a steady supply of ICM to treat patients.
