Inclusion criteria

* Is male or female from 0 to 3 years of age; * Is scheduled to undergo a radiologic examination that requires intravascular administration of ISOVUE as part of his/her standard of care; * Has normal baseline thyroid function tests (TSH, total T3, total T4, and fT4) performed at a local laboratory with blood sample obtained within one week prior to ISOVUE administration; * Written informed consent is obtained from the subject's parent(s) or legally acceptable representative(s) (according to local regulations) who are willing to comply with the protocol requirements.

Exclusion criteria

* Has any known allergy to one or more of the ingredients of ISOVUE; * Has been diagnosed with congenital hypothyroidism; * Has undergone radiation treatments to the head or neck; * Is currently on thyroid replacement therapy; * Is on therapy with dopamine or any treatment which may affect the thyroid function testing results; * Has been exposed to any topical iodinated product within 30 days prior to enrollment in the present study; * Has been exposed to an iodinated contrast agent within 1 year prior to enrollment in the present study, including any administration of iodinated contrast agents during placement of a central line; * Has any medical condition or other circumstances which would significantly decrease the chances of obtaining reliable data, achieving study objectives, or completing the study and/or post-dose follow-up examinations.

Recruitment details

On 03 March 2022, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released Bracco from the Post-Marketing Requirement (PMR) commitment as the risk of thyroid dysfunction was adequately addressed by FDA's review of findings reported in currently available publications. Therefore, the study was terminated on 25 March 2022 with only 17 subjects enrolled and dosed.

Pre-assignment details

Pediatric subjects (0-3 years of age) scheduled to undergo a routine radiologic procedure with intravascular administration of ISOVUE who had normal TFTs (serum TSH, T3, T4 & fT4) at baseline were to be enrolled. TFTs were to be reassessed at 1 month and 2 months post-ISOVUE injection. If TSH values were abnormal at 1- or 2-months, follow-up (via pre-defined questionnaire) was required at 6 and 12 months to monitor subject's progress (if any). Efficacy of ISOVUE was not assessed.
