AKI is a potential complication of intravascular iodinated contrast exposure. Contrast-associated AKI, which typically manifests as small and transient decrements in kidney function that develop withi...
Intravenous iodinated contrast media are commonly used in clinical practice, ranging from medical imaging to interventional radiology (IR) procedures and endovascular interventions. Compared with pati...
Contrast associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) can lead to an increased risk of adverse events. Contrast media (CM) volume reduction has been advocated as a pivotal strategy to prevent CA-AKI in sta...
To compare the effectiveness of CM volume reduction with the DyeVert...
We prospectively collected data from 136 patients with stable coronary artery disease at high risk of CA-AKI treated with left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP)- guided hydration and undergoi...
Patients in the DyeVert group were treated with a significant lower CM volume (median: 47.5 vs. 84.0 mL, p < 0.001). The trend in creatinine increase was lower (p = 0.004) and the Δ of creatinine (0-4...
CM volume reduction with the DyeVert...
The aim of this study was to quantify the effect of iodinated contrast media (ICM) conservation measures implemented at a single health system during a global shortage, comparing the 12-month period b...
Total body weight (TBW) is a frequently used contrast media (CM) strategy for dose calculation in enhanced CT, yet it is suboptimal as it lacks consideration of patient characteristics, such as body f...
Eighty-nine adult patients referred for CM thoracic CT were retrospectively included, categorized as either normal, muscular, or overweight. Patient body composition data was used to calculate the CM ...
BIA demonstrated the highest and lowest calculated CM dose in muscular and overweight groups respectively, compared to other strategies. For the normal group, the lowest calculated CM dose was achieve...
The BIA method is more adaptive to variations in patient body habitus especially in muscular and overweight patients and is most closely correlated to patient demographics. This study could support ut...
The BIA-based method is adaptive to variations in body habitus especially in muscular and overweight patients and is closely correlated to patient demographics for contrast-enhanced chest CT....
• Calculations based on BIA showed the largest variation in CM dose. • Lean body weight using BIA demonstrated the strongest correlation to patient demographics. • Lean body weight BIA protocol may be...
A severe shortage of iodinated contrast medium (ICM) has forced radiology departments around the world to implement strategies to reduce contrast utilization. The aim of this study was to evaluate the...
Our radiology department instituted several ICM-conserving interventions on 13...
The average daily number of CECT (all), CECT (inpatient and ED), CTPA, CECT AP, and 'Code stroke' CT scans decreased significantly (P < 0.01), by 58.6%, 68.8%, 74.1%, 88.0%, and 37.5%, respectively. T...
Interventions in CT alone, focused on improving patient triage to CECT while avoiding deferment of any outpatient oncology studies, have achieved an approximately two-thirds reduction in ICM consumpti...
To identify the risk factors for moderate and severe contrast media extravasation and provide effective guidance to reduce the degree of extravasation injuries....
We observed 224 adult patients who underwent contrast media extravasation at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Healthcare Hospital, and Xiangya Changde ...
Among 224 patients, 0 (0%) had severe, 18 (8.0%) had moderate, and 206 (92.0%) had mild contrast media extravasation injury. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed malignant tumors (odds r...
Risk factors for moderate contrast media extravasation injury are malignant tumors, iohexol, large-volume (> 50 mL) extravasation, and back-of-the-hand injection. Analysis of these risk factors can he...
High-risk patients with extravasation support should choose the appropriate contrast media type, avoiding back-of-the-hand injections. We recommend that patients with cancer be implanted with a high-p...
Iodinated- (ICM) and gadolinium-based (GCM) contrast media are used in radiology imaging techniques, such as computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR), respectively. The paper aims to analy...
To assess the role of atorvastatin to the frequency of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) undergoing computed tomography (CT) with intravenous...
One hundred patients with CVD undergoing CT with with intravenous contrast media administration were included in prospective observational study (ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT04666389). Patients were divi...
CI-AKI was diagnosed in 4 (3.96%) patients. At the same time, it was not possible to establish statistically significant relationships (p0.05) between risk factors and the development of CI-AKI. Stati...
Cardiovascular diseases may increase the risk of CI-AKI after computed tomography with intravenous contrast media administration. Therefore, it is recommended to evaluate the serum creatinine concentr...
To pool and summarise published data of pulmonary blood flow (PBF), pulmonary blood volume (PBV) and mean transit time (MTT) of the human lung, obtained with perfusion MRI or CT to provide reliable re...
PubMed was systematically searched to identify studies that quantified PBF/PBV/MTT in the human lung by injection of contrast agent, imaged by MRI or CT. Only data analysed by 'indicator dilution theo...
PBV was obtained from 313 measurements from 14 publications (wM: 13.97 ml/100 ml, wSD: 4.21 ml/100 ml, wCoV 0.30). MTT was obtained from 188 measurements from 10 publications (wM: 5.91 s, wSD: 1.84 s ...
Reference values for PBF, MTT and PBV were obtained in HV. The literature data are insufficient to draw strong conclusions regarding disease reference values....
