In patients with well-preserved renal function, the choice of contrast agent appears to have
little impact on the development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). However, in patients …

Background Although radio contrast volume has been associated with worsening post-
procedural kidney function, this relationship has not been extensively studied using an iso …

BACKGROUND: The choice of radiographic contrast media for use in patients at increased
risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is of ongoing interest. METHODS: The current …

BACKGROUND: Iso-osmolar contrast medium iodixanol has been reported to be less
nephrotoxic than selected low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM) in chronic kidney disease …

Background The use of iodinated contrast medium can result in nephropathy. Whether iso-
osmolar contrast medium is less nephrotoxic than low-osmolar contrast medium in high-risk …

BACKGROUND: Acute renal failure after contrast-induced nephropathy is a clinically
important and costly complication after the use of iodine-based contrast media. We …

Background Contrast media-induced nephropathy (CIN) is an increasing cause of hospital-
acquired acute kidney injury and leads to a significant increase in mortality. There is …

Contrast medium-(CM) induced nephropathy may be evident from symptoms ranging from
acute renal failure to minor changes in tubular function tests. While the incidence is usually …

Objectives: We sought to compare the nephrotoxicity of isosmolar contrast medium (IOCM)
iodixanol with low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM) and to identify predictors of contrast …

Purpose: To compare the nephrotoxicity of iso-osmolar iodixanol with that of nonionic low-
osmolar contrast media (CM)(LOCM) in randomized clinical trials. Materials and Methods …
