Contrast induced nephropathy

Radiologists please don’t get mad at me. I could have chosen any type of doctor to be the heel, you were just the funniest.

PSA

Ok can we talk about how much @DGlaucomflecken knows about medicine in general? Passing knowledge on all specialties, their mannerisms, their gear, social determinants of health, ins and outs of the US insurance fiasco and the double dipping publishing industry... HATS OFF 🫡

If only there was a consensus statement from both specialties on the subject to guide us but which everyone would ignore. Oh wait.

Just sending this video to radiology from now on

"hey nephro, this guy, we think his aorta is bleeding to death, but the problem is, creatinine is 2.1 mg/dl, how should we proceed?" From now on I'm going to embed this photo in any consultation request I get for that damn CT contrast. Thank you sir.

Brilliant, as usual, but these 2 stills say it ALL

The warning rattle of the salt container...like an angry rattlesnake. 😆

This is a serious issue nicely illustrated in a skit setting. There is great harm in delaying an indicated CT due to an unwarranted fear perpetuated by little or no evidence. Thanks for shedding light on this and we all need to do better.
