Early detection and intervention using neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) may improve renal outcome of acute contrast media induced nephropathy: A randomized controlled trial in patients undergoing intra-arterial angiography (ANTI-CIN Study)
BACKGROUND: Patients with pre-existing impaired renal function are prone to develop acute contrast media induced nephropathy (CIN).
