Abstract

Hypersensitivity reactions to radiocontrast media seem to be rare in children. Furthermore, the use of radiocontrast media in children remains quite safe in terms of the severity of reactions.

Specific protocols for risk stratification and management of severe reactions have been proposed so far.
