Iodine-based contrast media, multiple myeloma and monoclonal gammopathies: literature review and ESUR Contrast Media Safety Committee guidelines [PDF]
Objectives Many radiologists and clinicians still consider multiple myeloma (MM) and monoclonal gammopathies (MG) a contraindication for using iodine-based contrast media.

Contrast agents and renal cell apoptosis [PDF]
Contrast media (CM) induce a direct toxic effect on renal tubular cells. This toxic effect may have a role in the pathophysiology of contrast nephropathy.

This chapter sets out the role and application of contrast media within diagnostic radiography. As demonstrated, there are a range of media that may be applied, dependent upon the examination required. These range from negative medias such as air, oxygen

Contrast Media: Are There Differences in Nephrotoxicity among Contrast Media? [PDF]
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
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

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 ...

Selection of contrast media [PDF]
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 ...

Renal perfusion in scleroderma patients assessed by microbubble-based contrast-enhanced ultrasound [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Renal damage is common in scleroderma. It can occur acutely or chronically. Renal reserve might already be impaired before it can be detected by laboratory findings.

Iodinated contrast media and cerebral hemorrhage after intravenous thrombolysis [PDF]
<p>Background and Purpose: Iodinated contrast is increasingly used in CT perfusion or angiographic examinations in acute stroke. Increased risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) complicating microcatheter contrast injections has recently been ...

Medical contrast media as possible tools for SAXS contrast variation
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.
