A container for carrying a uniform, fan-folded stack of plastic sheet assemblies and for allowing the assemblies to be conveniently dispensed, one at a time, with minimal risk that the stack will become jammed. The stack of assemblies is retained behind a constriction within an elongated chamber having a corresponding shape and slightly larger size. Pulling the forward-most assembly through a narr...

Novel non-ionic contrast media are efficiently prepared from generally available ionic contrast media or non-iodinated precursors. Particularly, polyhydroxyhalo-hydrocarbons are employed with a triiodo-substituted acylamido benzoic acids in aqueous weakly basic media to selectively substitute the amido nitrogen, followed by activation of the carboxyl group for amide formation.
