文摘

We compared 24-gauge side-hole and conventional 22-gauge end-hole catheters in MDCT. The 24-gauge side-hole catheter is noninferior to the 22-gauge end-hole catheter. The 24-gauge side-hole catheter is safe and facilitates optimal enhancement quality. The 24-gauge side-hole catheter is suitable for patients with narrow or fragile veins.
