The following year, in 1945, Ramsey et al. ([1]) estimated the rate of absorption of Pantopaque to be 1cc. a year in humans based on animal studies which apparently showed 3cc. a year in dogs.
Peacher and Robertson ([2]) suggested that there were "no gross pathological changes" following Pantopaque myelography.
However, in the same year, Tarlov ([3]) described Pantopaque-related meningitis seen at operation.
