Abstract Purpose The Contrast Media Safety Committee (CMSC) of the European Society of
Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) has updated its 1999 guidelines on contrast medium-induced …

In general, iodinated contrast media (CM) are tolerated well, and CM use is steadily
increasing. Acute kidney injury is the leading life-threatening side effect of CM. Here, we …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of intravascular ultrasound
(IVUS) guidance on the final volume of contrast agent used in patients undergoing …

Background: Iodine contrast media are essential components of many imaging procedures.
An important potential side effect is contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). Purpose: To …

Diagnostic imaging using iodinated contrast media is an essential procedure in the clinical
setting and provides a large amount of beneficial information. However, the use of iodinated …

Background: Sodium bicarbonate has been postulated to prevent contrast-induced acute
kidney injury (CI-AKI) by various mechanisms, although the reports are conflicting. Methods …

Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is an acute renal injury due to the renal toxicity of
iodinated contrast media. It is classically defined as a relative (≥ 25%) or absolute (≥ 0.5 …

Background—Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is associated with significant morbidity
and mortality. The objective of our meta-analysis was to assess the efficacy of iodixanol …

Conflicting data have been reported on the effects of low-osmolar and iso-osmolar contrast
media on contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). In particular, no clinical trial has yet …

Objectives To investigate the potential of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) to assess the
renal pathophysiological process in contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI). Methods …
