1 lis 2020 · Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) have been 2 of the most feared adverse effects of iodinated contrast media for computed tomography (CT) and gadolinium-based contrast media for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), respectively.

27 cze 2023 · Getting an MRI with contrast is generally safe but rarely may cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting. People who are pregnant or have severe kidney disease should not get an MRI with contrast.
12 cze 2018 · Implications: In patients with AKI and category G4 and G5 CKD (eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m 2) and in dialysis-dependent patients who require GBCA-enhanced MRI, GBCA can be administered with exceedingly low risk of causing NSF when using macrocyclic agents and newer linear agents at routine doses.
6 mar 2023 · Common side effects of contrast materials are generally mild and may include a rash, nausea, and vomiting. More severe reactions can include anaphylactic shock or nephrogenic systemic...
29 wrz 2022 · The contrast agents used for MRI scans often contain a chemical element called gadolinium (gad-oh-LIN-e-um). Newer contrast agents that contain gadolinium are generally safe for people with kidney disease, even those who receive dialysis. But that might not be the case with older contrast agents.
27 sie 2020 · Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) improve the diagnostic capabilities of magnetic resonance imaging. Although initially believed to be without major adverse effects, GBCA use in patients with severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) was demonstrated to cause nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF).
11 maj 2014 · Abstract. Radiocontrast media (RCM) are medical drugs used to improve the visibility of internal organs and structures in X-ray based imaging techniques. They may have side effects ranging from itching to a life-threatening emergency, known as contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN).
