ExiTron P is a polymeric iodine-based contrast agent of high molecular weight specifically formulated for pre-clinical computed tomography (CT).
It shows strong X-ray absorption due to its covalently bound iodine atoms. Upon intravenous injection, ExiTron P circulates in the blood stream for a prolonged time.
Significant extravasation can be observed in fenestrated blood vessels of inflamed tissue or tumors.
ExiTron P is mainly excreted via glomerular filtration (kidneys).
Applications
ExiTron P is indicated for use in CT of small animals, for example mice, to facilitate the visualization of the vasculature.
