Zusammenfassung

In dieser Arbeit werden die Sicherheitsaspekte von Ultraschallkontrastmitteln (USKM) aufgezeigt und diskutiert.
USKM sind generell sehr sichere Arzneimittel. Insbesondere aufgrund der kolloidalen Struktur muss jedoch auch hier mit allergoiden Reaktionen gerechnet werden. Daneben wird durch die Applikation von USKM die Schwelle für das Auftreten akustisch induzierter Bioeffekte herabgesetzt und diese möglicherweise verstärkt. In vitro und im Rahmen von Tierversuchen konnten durch USKM und Ultraschall petechiale Blutungen, vaskuläre Schäden und die Bildung freier Radikale bis hin zu Schädigungen von DNA-Einzelsträngen nachgewiesen werden. Klinisch stehen diesen Untersuchungen jedoch keine entsprechenden Resultate gegenüber. Selten wurde bei kardiologischen Untersuchungen eine erhöhte Rate an ventrikulären Kontraktionen bei kontrastverstärkter Sonographie mit Triggerung auf die Endsystole beobachtet. Nephrotoxische Effekte, wie bei anderen Kontrastmitteln, wurden keine gefunden, sodass der kontrastmittelverstärkte Ultraschall als wichtige Untersuchungsalternative bei Patienten mit eingeschränkter Niereninsuffizienz anzusehen ist.
