What contrast do you put in the bladder (type and volume)?

We drip in up to 530 cc of contrast (500 cc bag of saline mixed with 30cc of Omnipaque-350). The contrast is dripped in under gravity and when the patient has pain or the contrast runs out we will stop and then start the study.

AJR 2008; 190:729-735 "Fifty-five (96%) of 57 urinary bladder lesions recognized at conventional cystoscopy were detected at MDCT cystoscopy. The size of the lesions ranged from 0.3 to 9.7 cm in diameter, including 18 lesions with a diameter of 0.5 mm or less. Transverse, multiplanar reformatted, and virtual images proved complementary for lesion detection" 16-MDCT Cystoscopy in the Evaluation of neoplasms of the Urinary Bladder Tsampoulas C et al.
