Patient's question:
Hello, what is acoustic contrast? The doctor said it's good. Is it the same as iodine contrast? And it costs 900 yuan per time. Is it necessary to have several contrast procedures if the fallopian tubes are blocked?Doctor's answer:
During various routine magnetic resonance examinations, the echoes between many tissues and organs, as well as between tissues and organs and lesions, are very close, making it difficult for magnetic resonance to distinguish them, leading to challenges in diagnosis and differential diagnosis. In such cases, substances that are stronger or weaker than the echoes of the tissues and organs and lesions to be examined can be introduced into the body to create a contrast, which is known as magnetic resonance contrast-enhanced examination, also called acoustic contrast-enhanced examination. The introduced substance is called a magnetic resonance contrast agent, also referred to as an acoustic contrast agent. Tubal iodine oil contrast examination is a radiographic hysterosalpingography performed using iodized oil as the contrast agent. The tubal iodine oil contrast examination involves injecting iodized oil contrast agent into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes through a catheter.
