• Shorter Premedication May Not Raise Contrast Reaction Risk (medscape.com subscription) — Emergency physicians at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick helped show that giving contrast-enhanced CT scans sooner after allergy premedication did not increase reaction risk. For local patients and clinicians, the findings could eventually mean faster imaging, shorter emergency room waits, and more efficient care at New Brunswick and other New Jersey hospitals.
