Renal tissue hypoxia is a key element in the pathophysiology of x-ray contrast media (CM) induced acute kidney injury. T2* mapping permits non-invasive probing of renal oxygenation. There is some discrepancy between reported CM effects on T2* and tissue pO2. Bridging the gap between tissue pO2 measured by invasive physiological methods (PHYSIOL) and T2*, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides access to Hb concentration per tissue volume and oxygen saturation of Hb crucial parameters for interpretation of renal T2*. We studied the effects of intra-arterial injection of iodixanol, a high viscosity x-ray CM, by combining data obtained from MRI, NIRS and PHYSIOL.
