Contrast Media: Are There Differences in Nephrotoxicity among Contrast Media? [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2014 Iodinated contrast agents are usually classified based upon their osmolality—high, low, and isosmolar. Iodinated contrast agents are also nephrotoxic in some but not all patients resulting in loss of glomerular filtration rate. Over the past 30 years, nephrotoxicity has been linked to osmolality although the precise mechanism underlying such a link has

Iodinated contrast media-induced hyperthyroidism
Journal of Medical Science, 2020 Currently, iodinated contrast media (ICM) is widely used in radiology, therefore numerous patients are exposed to contrast administration during diagnostic and interventional procedures. ICM contains an amount of iodine well above the recommended dietary

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023 Iodixanol is an iso-osmolar non-ionic dimeric hydrophilic contrast agent with a higher viscosity than the monomeric agents. It is the only Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved iso-osmolar agent in the United States, and it is the only contrast ...

Medical contrast media as possible tools for SAXS contrast variation
IUCrJ, 2019 Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is increasingly used to extract structural information from a multitude of soft-matter and biological systems in aqueous solution, including polymers, detergents, lipids, colloids, proteins and RNA/DNA.

Selection of contrast media [PDF]
Kidney International, 2006 The pathophysiologic mechanisms of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) have been reviewed by Persson and Tepel. They focus on the renal response to contrast media (CM). In this section, we focus on the CM itself. Aspects of importance with regard to CIN include the route of administration, the volume of CM, the manner of X-ray attenuation, and the ...
