The University awarded a contract for Lipiodol (ethiodized oil) Injection.
Lipiodol (ethiodized oil) injection is an oil-based radio-opaque contrast agent.
This purchase is exempt from the usual selection processes of the Procurement Code because the procurement expenditure is for medical supplies or medical services necessary for the delivery of care and treatment at medical, dental, or veterinary teaching facilities utilized by SIU or U of I (30 ILCS 500 / 1-13(b-5)) Lipiodol (ethiodized oil) injection is an oil-based radio-opaque contrast agent indicated for selective hepatic intra-arterial use in adults with hepatocelluar carcinoma. It is combined with chemotherapeutic agents and then injected into the hepatic artery to treat hepatocellular carcinoma. If we are unable to purchase Lipiodol, UI Health will not be able to provide this life saving treatment and patients will have to be referred to other medical centers.
