Abstract: This Short Report aimed to quantify the effect of iodinated contrast media (ICM) conservation measures implemented at a single health system during a global shortage, comparing the 12-month period before intervention and the 14-day period after intervention. The mean daily utilization of contrast-enhanced CT decreased from 112 to 44 examinations, the mean ICM volume per CECT examination decreased from 88 to 74 mL, and the mean daily ICM use decreased from 9.9 to 3.3 L.
