Low-iodine dye for chest CT images
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a lower amount of iodine dye during a chest CT scan can still produce good images. It may help doctors see chest structures clearly while using less iodine for the scan.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a personalized way to calculate contrast dye for CT scans, based on your sex and body measurements. It may improve safety and image quality.
This trial uses a special CT scan (CT urography) to measure kidney function in people whose kidneys are already working below normal (GFR < 60). The goal is to see if this scan is a good alternative to blood tests for tracking kidney health.
This trial looks at whether doing a skin test with a full-strength (undiluted) version of contrast dye makes the test more accurate for people who have had allergic reactions to these dyes. It may help doctors figure out which contrast agent is truly causing your allergy.
This study compares two ways of measuring kidney function (using a blood test with a special dye versus a standard calculation). It aims to see which method is more practical and accurate for people with advanced kidney disease, including those on dialysis. This could help doctors better tailor treatments.
This study tests a special low-radiation CT scan with a contrast dye called Iomeron 400 to see if it works well for checking lung nodules or pneumonia.
This study compares two types of scanning cameras to see how well they record images in people with thyroid cancer treated with iodine 131. It may help improve which camera gives clearer results after this treatment.
