Iodinated contrast media (ICM) is widely used in diagnostic imaging across healthcare systems. Despite advancements that have significantly reduced the rate of hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs)—particularly with the shift from high- to low-osmolality contrast agents—adverse responses to ICM remain a clinical concern. Both immediate and delayed rea1Read more
