Contrast‐induced nephropathy [PDF]
AbstractContrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is an iatrogenic disorder, resulting from exposure to contrast media. Contrast‐induced hemodynamic and direct cytotoxic effects on renal structures are highly evident in its pathogenesis, whereas other mechanisms are still poorly understood. CIN is typically defined as an increase in serum creatinine by either

Contrast-induced nephropathy [PDF]
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has been extensively studied since the 1950s due, in part, to its devastating adverse events. The intellectual push for additional investigation into pathogenesis and prevention has heightened in recent years due to increased utilization of contrast enhanced imaging studies.
