Brief Summary: Patients who are scheduled by their health care provider for routine computed tomography CT scan will be asked to participate in this study The primary purpose is to determine if there is a difference in patient preference for Omnipaque versus Gastroview as oral contrast for abdominal pelvic CT A secondary objective is to evaluate if there is significant difference in bowel opacification for the two agents
Detailed Description: Participants must be scheduled for a CT scan prior to enrollment in this study Informed consent will be obtained from patients acceptable to be included in the study It will be noted if there is a history of gastrointestinal surgery and if the patient is nauseated before the contrast is administered

Patients will be randomized to receive either a standardized dilution of Gastroview or Omnipaque orally The two agents will be prepared to have nearly equivalent iodine concentration No flavoring agent ie Crystal Light will be added The plan is to mix the agents per manufacturer recommendation as follows

Omnipaque 350 26cc in 974 cc of water 90g iodine Gastroview 25cc in 1000cc of water 917g iodine

The time the patients start and stop consuming the contrast as well as the volume taken and time from first drink to start of the scan will be recorded by a blinded investigator Patients will be asked to drink 900cc Technical staff will report any side effects or complications observed

After completion of the CT scan patients will fill in a survey rating the taste of the agent on a 5 point scale and will be asked to report any side effects Planned rating scale is as follows

2Dislike very much
1Dislike moderately 0Neither like nor dislike

1Like moderately
2Like very much

A taste test between the two agents will then be administered by a blinded investigator Patients will be given 30 cc of each agent The order in which the agents are administered will be randomized Patients will be asked to rate preference if any for either agent on a 3 point scale Potential bias related to which agent was administered for the CT will analyzed from the data

Planned rating scale is as follows

1- A is better 0 -no difference

1- B is better

Patients will be contacted by telephone the day after the CT to assess for any delayed side effects such as diarrhea constipation and abdominal cramping experienced in the 24 hours following

Bowel opacification will be rated by 2 body imagers blinded to the agent the patient received Degree of opacification of the stomach duodenum jejunum and ileum will be rated on a 4 point scale If contrast has reached the colon ascending transverse descending and sigmoid will be similarly evaluated Four point rating scale is as follows

0 absent opacification

1 minimal 25 of analyzed segments opacified
2 good 25 and 75 of analyzed segments opacified
3 excellent 75 of analyzed segments opacified

Description of testsprocedures to be performed Patients will undergo contrast enhanced abdominal pelvis CT as ordered by the referring clinician Patients will be randomized to either dilute Omnipaque or dilute Gastroview for oral contrast Both agents will be in a concentration of 9 mg of iodineml and a volume of 900 cc
