Core Tip
Core Tip: For patients with diabetes mellitus complicated by malignant tumors, there is potential for improving the administration of intravenous contrast agents during contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CECT). High-pressure-resistant peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) may be a better option for this improvement. This study has demonstrated the advantages of using high-pressure-resistant PICC in CECT for such patients, including reducing the physical burden during nursing, lowering treatment costs, and enhancing the efficiency and quality of imaging. These novel findings offer a strong research foundation for future research.
