Effects of theophyline on contrast [PDF]
Journal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, 2006 Background and purpose: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CN) is one of the most common causes of iatrogenic acute renal failure. In fact CN is the third leading cause of new ARF in hospitalized patients. Radiocontrast-associated ARF is a significant problem
