Contrast Media: Are There Differences in Nephrotoxicity among Contrast Media?
Iodinated contrast agents are usually classified based upon their osmolality--high, low, and isosmolar. Iodinated contrast agents are also nephrotoxic in some but not all patients resulting in loss of glomerular filtration rate. Over the past 30 years, nephrotoxicity has been linked to osmolality although the precise mechanism underlying such a link has been elusive. Improvements in our underst...

*Corresponding author: Majid Tavafi, Department of anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Lorestan University of Medical sciences, Khoram Abad, Iran. E-mail: [email protected] Radiological procedures using injection of contrast media have been employed increasingly for diagnostic purposes (1). Nevertheless, side effect of contrast media injection known as contrast media nephrotoxicity is still a major c...
متن کاملOrgan dose in kidney imaging with contrast media
Introduction:Intravenous urography (IVU) test includes high number of images and extended imaging size. These make IVU as a diagnostic method with high absorbed doses by sensitive organs such as intestine and gonads in pelvic-abdominal area. In this study absorbed doses of pelvic-abdomen sensitive organs such as Adrenal, Bladder, Colon and Gonads in IVU test. <stron...
متن کاملExtravasation of Contrast Media
Extravasated iodinated contrast media are toxic to the surrounding tissues, particularly to the skin, producing an acute local inflammatory response that sometimes peaks in 24 to 48 hours. The acute tissue injury resulting from extravasation of iodinated contrast media is possibly related primarily to the hyperosmolality of the extravasated fluid. Despite this, the vast majority of patients in ...
متن کاملContrast media induced nephropathy: CONTRAST There is an ongoing controversy on the impact of iso- osmolar contrast agents on contrast media induced nephropathy (CIN). The COntrast Media and Neph- roToxicity Following Coronary Revascularization by AngioplaSTy
There is an ongoing controversy on the impact of isoosmolar contrast agents on contrast media induced nephropathy (CIN). The COntrast Media and NephroToxicity Following Coronary Revascularization by AngioplaSTy (CONTRAST) randomized 324 patients with impaired renal function undergoing PCI to receive either the iso-osmolar contrast medium iodixanol 320 (Visipaque ) or the low-osmolar contrast me...
