Gadolinium Induced Acute Kidney Injury and Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis
Keywords:
Gadolinium, MRI, contrast agents, renal function test, nephrotoxicity
Abstract
Use of contrast agents like gadolinium in MR imaging studies has considerably increased. Although safe in patients with normal kidney function, administration of these agents in people with renal dysfunction can result in many clinical problems that the nephrologists should be familiar with. This brief review discusses these iatrogenic problems that can be induced by contrast agents like gadolinium. JMS 2012;15(2):166-69
