Objectives: To investigate the prevalence and risk factors linked to contrast-induced
nephropathy in this specific patient population, aiming to ensure the highest quality of …

Goal: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is a well-tolerated, noninvasive study of the
intracranial vascular circulation; however, contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has been …

Background The aim of the study was to assess (i) the rate of contrast-induced nephropathy
(CIN),(ii) the amount and time course of renal dysfunction,(iii) the identification of risk factors …

Background: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a major side effect of intravenous
iodinated contrast and causes both short-and long-term adverse effects. While diagnostic …

Methods: Single-center, nested, case-control study of patients with ischemic stroke who
received a CTA between July 1, 2012 and January 31, 2015. Those patients who received a …

Objectives: Emergent computed tomography angiography with contrast is commonly
performed for acute ischaemic stroke, but potentially delayed pending admission renal …

Background: Given the rise in the use of multimodal Computerized Tomography (CT)
including CT angiography (CTA) and CT Perfusion (CTP) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) …

Background and Purpose—Because of the perceived risk of contrast-induced acute kidney
injury (AKI), many centers require pre-imaging serum creatinine levels, potentially delaying …

Background and Purpose—Minimal research has evaluated the renal safety of emergent
computed tomography angiography (CTA) procedures, consecutive contrast medium …

We thank the authors Brinjikji et al for their study on contrastinduced nephropathy (CIN) in
acute stroke patients. 1 The study concludes that iodinated contrast for computed …
