followed for appropriate storage and handling of contrast materials. All contrast media storage
areas and contrast media warmers require locked security, allowing access only to appropriate
staff. Stock should be rotated and expiration dates monitored. Shipping cartons should be
removed and stock should be located on shelving no higher than 18 inches from the ceiling.
