Ephedrine (25 mg) and diphenhydramine (50 mg) are also given 1 h before the examination, and only a lowosmolar contrast medium should be used. Pretesting for allergy with small doses of contrast medium was once widely performed but has now been abandoned as completely unreliable. Fatalities have occurred after previous negative test doses, and test doses have themselves resulted in fatalities. Treatment Emergency drugs and equipment should be immediately available wherever contrast media are used.
Lateral and anterior displacement of the trachea has also been described, and the descending aorta often bulges to the left and is sometimes lobulated. A recent chest film, if available, is most helpful, as a change in contour then becomes obvious. Medial displacement of the calcified intima at the aortic knuckle has been described but is rarely clear cut, and a pleural effusion (haemothorax) is present in about 20% of cases. In patients with Marfan's syndrome, localised bulging of the ascending aorta to the right may be recognised.

These can be true or false aneurysm or dissecting aneurysm. 52).
