3 is methyl.
4.
The compound having the structure: ##STR19## 5.
A method of medical x-ray diagnostic imaging the blood pool, liver, spleen, or lymph system of a mammal comprising administering to the mammal a contrast effective amount of a compound having the structure: ##STR20## wherein: n is 2; R.
sup.
1 is H or alkyl containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; R.
sup.
2 is H, alkyl containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, aryl or heteroaryl wherein aryl is phenyl, tolyl or anthracene and heteroaryl is thiophene or benzofuran; and R.
sup.
3 is alkyl containing from 1 to 18 carbon atoms.
6.
The method of claim 5 wherein R.
sup.
1 is H and R.
sup.
2 is CH.
sub.
3.
7.
The method of claim 5 wherein R.
sup.
3 is methyl.
8.
The method of claim 5 wherein the compound has the structure ##STR21## 9.
An x-ray contrast composition comprising the compound of claim 1.
10.
The x-ray contrast composition of claim 9 further including a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
11.
A method for medical x-ray diagnostic imaging which comprises administering to the body of a mammal a contrast effective amount of the x-ray contrast composition of claim 9.




Description:
FIELD OF INVENTION This invention relates to methods of x-ray diagnostic imaging the blood pool, liver, spleen and/or lymph system of a mammal employing particulate compounds as a contrast agent, and to certain novel compounds useful as contrast agents in x-ray contrast compositions and methods of diagnostic imaging.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION X-ray imaging is a well known and extremely valuable tool for the early detection and diagnosis of various disease states in the human body
