Contrast Induced Nephropathy, Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning
Can Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning Reduce Contrast Induced Nephropathy in Patients Receiving Contrast for Computed Tomography?
Computated tomography (CT) is an invaluable medical resource for both physicians and surgeons. Contrast media are an aid to improve the diagnostic yield of CT.
