Contrast-Induced Neurotoxicity: An Inside Look at a Rare Presentation

Imaging modalities frequently utilize iodinated-based contrast agents (IBCAs) to assist professionals in deficit identification and improve clinical outcomes for patients. However, they are not without risk. In patients with post-radiological neurological deficits, contrast-induced neurotoxicity (CIN) should be among the top differentials. In this case report, we present the case of a 61-year-old female who experienced classical signs and symptoms of neurotoxicity after a cerebral angiogram. The patient’s clinical detriments stemming from iodinated contrast resolved after a multi-day treatment of high-dose steroid use.
