Clinical definition of iodinated contrast induced (CI) acute kidney injury (AKI) is based on serum creatinine measurements made 48-72 hours post-contrast administration. Such a delay results in poor specificity in terms of causal relationship. Novel marker urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has shown response 8 hours post-contrast. Previous reports have shown that changes in R2* by MRI can demonstrate responses in real time with contrast administration. Here, we evaluated the effects of interventions to prevent CIAKI using BOLD MRI and compare them to urinary NGAL measurements made at baseline and 4 hrs post-contrast in a CIAKI susceptible rat model.
