I never said it happened 15 years ago. It clearly was used for over a dozen years though. Just because you said it isn’t doesn’t mean it wasn’t used in the past. It was just a “few” people, right, lol.

My experience happened in the last 3 years to my memory. I would have to get my records out. I’ve had so many medical misadventures since it is hard to keep up. Did I not say I didn’t know what the dye was. I was never told. It is all conjecture at this point. You honestly think the technician reviewed my records before giving me the dye. That is laughable.

“The CT techs needed to raise the contrast temperature to body temperature, instead.” I am so glad you brought that up, that has only been a recent development after my experience. I hardly consider what happened to me micro-tears. What if that had gone to my lungs or brain. Whatever happened to “do no harm”. It ain’t rocket science, lol.

Viscosity of iodinated CT contrast agents goes down by roughly 50%, when warmed up to body temperature, instead of room temperature, from what I read from a 2017 radiological conference.
