Contrast Agent Guidelines

Contrast agent guidelines provide safety protocols for using substances that improve imaging tests, like X-rays or MRIs. They ensure evaluation of a patient's medical history—such as kidney health or allergies—before administering these agents. The guidelines help minimize risks, like allergic reactions or kidney issues, by advising healthcare providers on proper screening, dosing, and monitoring. Overall, they promote safe, effective imaging while protecting patient health during diagnostic procedures involving contrast agents.
