Assessment of the effect of radio contrast media on resistive index of renal artery by color doppler sonography

Assessment of the effect of radio contrast media on resistive index of renal artery by color doppler sonography

Renal ischemia and direct toxic effect of contrast media are the main confounding causes of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). The effect of different contrast mediums on the resistance of renal artery is quite unclear. The aim of the present study was to assess the resistive index (RI) changes of...
