Contrast‐enhanced CT—Nephrotoxic or not? A critical review of propensity‐score‐adjusted studies
Abstract Retrospective, propensity‐score‐adjusted (PSA) studies have indicated to practitioners in the field that contrast‐induced acute kidney injury (AKI) after contrast‐enhanced CT (CECT) is of minor importance or even non‐existent. This has led to controversies between clinicians demanding CECT not to miss any diagnoses and radiologists reluctant ...
