Iodinated contrast media (ICM) are the most common contrast agents used in modern radiology and they are becoming more commonly used in medical practice. The occurrence of adverse reactions is frequently undervalued, placing the patient at risk for further exposure. On the other hand, reactions can be overvalued, conditioning unnecessary restrictions. Early recognition of adverse reactions, knowledge of their physiopathology, risk factors and therapeutic approach are essential for a correct management of ICM. This is why it is important to divulge this knowledge among imunoallergologists, who will need to evaluated and treat these cases

Palabras clave : Iodinated contrast media; adverse reactions; immediate reactions; late reactions; skin tests.
