Abstract
The invention relates to a device suitable for at least partially introducing into human and/or animal bodies, said device containing barium iodide located at least on one wall such that the device is visible during an imaging method.
Claims25
Device (1) suitable for insertion at least partially into the human and/or animal body, characterized in that the device contains barium iodide (4) or that barium iodide (4) is provided on at least one wall.
Device according to the preceding claims, characterized in that the device (1) has an expandable and contractable hollow space (3), such as, for example, a vascular balloon.
Device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the barium iodide (4) is in powder form.
Device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the barium iodide (4) is soluble in a liquid (5).
Device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the barium iodide (4) is at least partially in dissolved form.
Hollow space (6,7) that is suitable for being connected to a device (1) according to the preceding claims, characterized in that barium iodide (4) is present in this hollow space (6,7).
Hollow space (6,7) according to the preceding claim, characterized in that the hollow space (6) is a multi-path tap (6).
Hollow space (6,7) according to the preceding claim, characterized in that barium iodide is a ready-to-use solution.
Hollow space (6,7) according to the preceding claim, characterized in that the ready-to-use solution interacts with electromagnetic radiation.
Hollow space (6,7) according to the preceding claim, characterized in that the ready-to-use solution interacts with X-ray radiation.
Barium iodide (4) for use as an X-ray contrast medium.
Barium iodide (4) dissolved in a liquid (5), for use as an X-ray contrast medium.
Barium iodide (4) dissolved in a liquid (5), for use as an expanding liquid for expandable hollow bodies (3) that are suitable for being inserted into a human and/or animal body.
Barium iodide in powder form for producing an X-ray contrast medium.
Barium iodide in powder form for producing an expanding fluid for the expansion of an at least partially expandable hollow body that is suitable for being inserted into a human and/or animal body.
Carrier body for dissolvable binding of barium iodide, characterized in that the carrier body has numerous cavities, particularly is sponge-like.
Carrier body for dissolvable bonding of barium iodide, characterized in that the carrier body is essentially dust-like, particularly with particle sizes smaller than 1 mm, preferably smaller than 0.1 mm.
