Probability of Reduced Renal Function After Contrast-Enhanced CT: A Model Based on Serum Creatinine Level, Patient Age, and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate
American Journal of Roentgenology, 07/23/09
Herts BR et al. – The probability of a reduced estimated GFR after CECT can be predicted by the pre–CT estimated GFR using the four–variable MDRD equation. Furthermore, standard criteria for contrast–induced nephropathy are poor predictors of poor renal function after CECT. Criteria need to be established for what is an acceptable risk to manage patients undergoing CECT.
