Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -If a perforation of the gastrointestinal tract is present, Gastrografin finds its way into the abdominal cavity or the surrounding tissue, where it is absorbed and finally excreted via the kidneys.
Detailed explanation-2: -The ideal contrast agent in patients suspected of having gastrointestinal perforation is an iso-osmolar, or nearly iso-osmolar substance, that causes no peritoneal reaction. Iopamidol is a nonionic water-soluble contrast medium that may be considered in such situations.
