“…Thorotrast was accumulated in the reticuloendothelial system of the liver, and its subsequent release of mainly α-rays is believed to be the cause of the hepatic malignancies. A total of six studies on Thorotrast have been published in Acta Radiologica (67)(68)(69)(70)(71)(72). These studies have been both experimental animal studies on pharmacokinetics, as well as clinical study on the late effects on Thorotrast after its use in cerebral angiography (71).…”

“…The few studies published in this period have mainly been experimental, with a focus on the pathogenesis of acute reactions. Special interest has been in the release of histamine from mast cells as the potential culprit (68). In another experimental study, the mechanism by which iodine HOCM causes pulmonary edema at high doses was investigated (69).…”

This review focuses on the trends in contrast media (CM) research published in Acta Radiologica during the last 100 years, since the first edition in 1921. The main topics covered are the developments of iodine- and gadolinium-based CM. Other topics include manganese-based CM for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and barium for the investigation of the alimentary tract. From a historic point of view, special CM for use in cholegraphy and myelography are addressed in the review. Today, these imaging procedures are obsolete due to the development of computed tomography, MRI, and ultrasound. The historical use of radioactive thorium-based CM for angiography is also addressed. Furthermore, publications on adverse reactions to CM are reviewed.
