Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis Associated with Gadolinium Use [PDF]
Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008 Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is an idiopathic, progressive, systemic fibrosis that occurs in patients with renal diseases. Recently, gadolinium-containing contrast (Gd-contrast) has become a suspected causal factor for NFS.

A moderate response to plasmapheresis in nephrogenic systemic fibrosis
Clinics and Practice, 2011 Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a recently identified idiopathic cutaneous fibrosing disorder that occurs in the setting of renal failure. The disease initially called nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy is closely linked to exposure to gadolinium ...

Giornale italiano di nefrologia : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di nefrologia, 2008 Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a new, rare, and severe disease occurring in patients with renal failure who have been exposed to gadolinium. The pathogenesis of NSF is not completely known. In fact, the first warning about a significant relationship between NSF and gadolinium (a contrast medium used in magnetic resonance imaging) was only ...
