[Contrast medium induced nephropathy].
Contrast medium indicated nephropathy (CMIN) is a iatrogenic disorder by which patients become inflicted due to contrast medium exposure. Prevalence of this disorder might increase as more and more diagnostic and intervence radiology has been used. The article is focused on known pathofysiological mechanisms that are responsible for CMIN incidence. There are many risk factors guided by more frequent development of this complication, in particular diabetes mellitus, preexisting renal disease, hypertensis. Plus, the risk of CMIN is much higher in patients with risky medication. Measures to prevent contrast nephropathy coincidence are mentioned; however, some of them require more support and evidence in studies. The possible incidence of CMIN has to be taken into account and prevented by respective measures.
