We compared two nonionic contrast agents (ioxaglate and iohexol) with an ionic agent (Renografin-76) on the effects of ventriculography and coronary arteriography on the hemodynamics, electrocardiography, and serum creatinine in one hundred consecutive patients. Patients were randomized to nonionic
