Mechanism of action

Lipiodol Ultra Fluid is a lipophilic contrast medium containing iodine that enhances radiographic visibility of tissues and vascular structures. When combined with surgical glues (cyanoacrylates or fibrin-based adhesives), it functions as a hemostatic and tissue-sealing agent, allowing surgeons to visualize the application site while simultaneously achieving adhesion and hemostasis in surgical fields.
